I got a prompt:

e:\>cvs -d :pserver:user at server:/repos login
Logging in to :pserver:user at server:2401:/repos
CVS Password:
cvs [login aborted]: bad auth protocol start: BEGIN AUTH REQUEST

Is that the correct response in the case of a not supported protocol? I'd
have expected something like "protocol not supported" or so :)
