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).
