First of all, where do you want your repository located? the 'init'
command will create the CVSROOT folder for you. *If* you have not been
able to import anythign into cvs I recommend doing this:
rm -rf /home/cvs # WARNING this will erase any existing modules
mkdir /home/cvs
cvs -d /home/cvs init
now, your CVSROOT will be:
export CVSROOT=:local:/home/cvs
and to login you can do:
export CVSROOT=:local:/home/cvs
cvs login
or
cvs -d :local:/home/cvs login
