[cvsnt] Error reading from server xx.xx.xx.xxx: 0: No such file ordirectory

I do not think the problem is related to ports.

The problem is the config setting of passwd or Pserver.

Your SystemAuth ---> 'SystemAuth=yes' and the passwd ---> :
cvs:XdmuQ8SRTP8U2 look like they are not correct, usually if
SystemAuth=yes you do NOT use passwd and if SystemAuth=no then you will
have passwd with an alias (which you do not have).  

Debugging CVSNT server installs is a matter of making it simpler and
working, then add all the fancy stuff later.  Try testing your server
with a 'real' user, eg:


Unix client: cvs -d :ext:myuser at server:/repo rls
Windows client: cvs -d :ssh:myuser at server:/repo rls

> cvs -z9 -d :pserver:cvs at 10.5.68.161:/CVSROOT login 
> Logging in to :pserver:cvs at 10.5.68.161:2401:/CVSROOT
> cvs [login aborted]: /CVSROOT: no such repository
> ***** CVS exited normally with code 1 *****

Don't use the name CVSROOT: ANYWHERE EVER AGAIN ANYTIME for a user,
repository, alias, module, daughter, pet.  Or CVSNT, or CVS.  Try
calling your user 'repo_user' and your repository
/repo.

CVS, CVSNT and CVSROOT are reserved words - they are never to be used.

> Repository0=/usr/local/cvsrep/
> Repository0Name=/usr/local/cvsrep/
> LockServer=localhost:2402
> 1 = cvsnt (cvsnt client, wincvs, tortoisecvs, etc.)

That last line is not a valid setting.
