CVS 1.11.1p1 (which you can get from www.cvshome.org) logs authorization
failures using syslog (under the DAEMON facility for general information
and, if it exists, AUTHPRIV for specific username and password info). 
If you're sure the repository now matches, it's almost certainly a
password problem.
