Anonymous access to anonscm.debian.org

[Brian Potkin <claremont102@gmail.com>]

The procedure to check out a copy of the wml files by anonymous access
is described at

   http://www.debian.org/devel/website/using_cvs

However,

   brian@dektop3:~$ cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@anonscm.debian.org:/cvs/webwml login
   Logging in to :pserver:anonymous@anonscm.debian.org:2401/cvs/webwml
   CVS password: 
   brian@dektop3:~$ cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@anonscm.debian.org:/cvs/webwml checkout webwml
   Fatal error, aborting.
   anonymous: no such system user

It's not unknown for me to make a mistake when doing something new but I
really cannot see what I have done incorrectly here. Guidance would be
appreciated.

Regards,

Brian.
