I am having problems with login and at a loss of what to do as I have
tried everything I can think of (Different versions of python, WinCVS,
different settings, etc).  If anyone has any advice, it would greatly be
appreciated.    

BACKGROUND
Let me give some background of the current installation:
Machine Name: Ferrari
OS: Windows2K
CVSNT (Local Install): 2.0.15
WinCVS Version (Local Install): 1.3.13.2
Path: /test
Python Version: 2.2.2

CREATE USER
I did the following to create a user:
1. set cvsroot=:sspi:FERRARI:/test
2. cvs passwd -r dino -a DinoNew4
3. Enter password and password confirmed
3. To test: cvs ls -l -R

After this last command, I receive the module listing as expected:
checkoutlist                    1.1     Tue Dec 23 06:57:31 2003

Directory CVSROOT/Emptydir

PROBLEM:
Now, I set the following preferences in WinCVS:

Authentication: sspi
Path: /test
Host address: Ferrari
Username: DinoNew4
CVSRoot: dinonew4 at ferrari:/test

Then I try to login and get the following message:

#### BEGIN CVS MESSAGE ###

cvs -d :sspi:dino4 at ferrari:/test login 
cvs [login aborted]: unrecognized auth response from ferrari: cvs
[server aborted]: Authentication protocol rejected access

***** CVS exited normally with code 1 *****

#### END CVS MESSAGE ###

At this point, I'm stuck.  Any advice would greatly be appreciated. 

Thnx and Merry x-mas
