cvs -d:pserver:pserver:anonymous@ps2dev.org:/home/ps2cvs login

Do you change user for CVS access?

I just ran an update (actually it's still running), and anonymous worked fine.

My .cvspass line is
/1 :pserver:anonymous@cvs.ps2dev.org:2401/home/ps2cvs Ay=0=a%0bZ

Called from ps2devupdate.sh as

## CVS configuration.
if [ -z "`cat ~/.cvspass | grep $CVSROOT`" ]; then
echo "THE SECRET PASSWORD IS: anonymous"
cvs -d $CVSROOT login
fi

And my CVSROOT is

export CVSROOT=":pserver:anonymous@cvs.ps2dev.org:2401/home/ps2cvs"

You have pserver in there twice, take one out.
