What version of cvs client are  you using?  What I've found is that
cvs 1.11 accepts the port format, but fails to use it.  It actually uses it 
in 1.11p1 and 1.11.2.

No matter what we think of Linux versus FreeBSD, etc., the one thing I
really like about Linux is that it has Microsoft worried.  Anything
that kicks a monopoly in the pants has got to be good for something.
