Now I've got the server running, but I can't connect to it:

michael@camille ~ $ cvs login
Logging in to :pserver:michael@carter.espersunited.com:2401/root
CVS password: 
cvs [login aborted]: connect to
carter.espersunited.com(192.168.1.2):2401 failed: Connection refused

My .cvspass looks kinda weird too:
michael@camille ~ $ cat .cvspass
/1 :pserver:michael@carter.espersunited.com:2401/root Ah0 %0]y?

Is this right?
