Is it possible to check out the current CVS tree? I tried 
  cvs -d ":pserver:anonymous at cvs.debian.org:/cvs/fai" login
but got the following response
  Logging in to :pserver:anonymous at cvs.debian.org:2401/cvs/fai
  CVS password: 
  cvs login: authorization failed: server cvs.debian.org rejected access to /cvs/fai for user anonymous

I was using a blank password.
