Is the server part of a domain?  In this case the server will always
check the domain rather than the local server.

The 'no such user' error is always the result of not being able to
find a real user.   This is required even if impersonation is off,
(even though it's not essential in this case) basically so that it
works as documented in the CVS manual.
