Hi, I was going to file a bug on this if one did not exist.

When a competent cvs administrator sets up a new pserver, he will open
the default config file and modify the settings.  Since there is an
option already present there (and in the cvs manual) about falling
back to system authentication, there really is no other reason to
check the Debian Readme file.  The administrator would set SystemAuth
to no, and assume his cvs is secured as he wants it to be.  He should
not have to check the Debian Readme to see if a default behavior has
*changed*.  Anyway, I believe a simple solution to this problem is
changing the default 'config' file for a repository to include a
PamAuth example (expliticly turning it on).  This will avoid the
confusion I had (and most likely other people did as well).

Hope you consider this "fix",

Ed
