$ telnet 192.168.1.1 2401
Trying 192.168.1.1...
Connected to 192.168.1.1.
Escape character is '^]'.
hello
cvs [pserver aborted]: bad auth protocol start: hello
Connection closed by foreign host.
so it's apparently connecting, but not authenticating. (right?)
the <CVSROOT>/passwd file looks like
-rw-r--r-- 1 will Jul 10 00:27 CVSROOT/passwd
containing only
will:LQ8t.ApJDZE.g
maybe somehow the cvs server side is looking in the wrong place
for the passwd file?
if i just delete the CVSROOT/passwd file altogether should i be
able to get in scot-free? i still get 'connection refused'
regardless...

DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #21 from Will Trillich <will@serensoft.com>
:
Looking to configure your Debian NETWORK SETTINGS? Look at the
file /etc/network/interfaces (try "man interfaces" for more
info). Then "ifup -a" to reload your settings, and "ifconfig" to
display them. (Also check out "apt-get install ipmasq"!)
