Is CVS_RSH=rsh or CVS_RSH=ssh ? Try

   rsh server.my.home date
or
   ssh server.my.home date

if anything more than just one line with the date appears, then your dot
files are doing something that will confuse the client/server
interaction.

The Manual has an entire section on troubleshooting. Look at it.
