With CVS 1.11, you can just do "cvs version" (that's a command, not an
option, so no -) to get both the client and server version information
in one shot.

That indicates that the server is closing the connection.  That could be
because it is crashing, or it could be because you've got some kind of
access control software (e.g., tcpd) that's denying access to the
server.  Look in the server's TempDir (usually /tmp) for leftover
cvs-serv* directories and core files -- if there aren't any, the server
isn't crashing.
