ok, either i am stupid or there is something wrong with the description
om how to get cvs to checkout the pkgsrc tree to update it...

I get:
cvs update -d -P
anoncvs.netbsd.org: Connection refused
cvs [update aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if any)

i did setenv CVSROOT as desrcibed on teh page "Tracking NetBSD-current
with anoncvs"

on cvs login i get:
cvs login: can only use pserver method with `login' command
cvs [login aborted]: CVSROOT: anoncvs@anoncvs.netbsd.org:/cvsroot

what am i doing wrong here?
