But when you login and after the CVS password: prompt you just hit  
enter, you should
go back to the shell prompt and then you do cvs -z3 checkout pan.

What I did was this:

env CVSROOT=":pserver:address@hidden:/cvs/gnome" cvs -z3  
checkout pan

I didn't even use cvs login

Grabbed the source and put it in ./pan
