I see two problems here.
	1. you need a user name. Here is an example:
		:sspi:<user>@<computername>:/test
	2. You need to use the login command before anything will work.
         in WinCVS, its "Admin->login" or from the command line
         its "cvs -d :sspi:<user>@<computername>:/test login"
	   then it will ask for a password.
After this, your "ls" command should work. 

Hope this helps.

 
Reed.
