You're missing the path to the repository, aren't you?

linux% cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@cvs.yellowdoglinux.com login
cvs login: missing hostname in CVSROOT: :pserver:anoncvs@cvs.yellowdoglinux.com
cvs [login aborted]: Bad CVSROOT.

And if I just guess:

linux% cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@cvs.yellowdoglinux.com:. login
(Logging in to anoncvs@cvs.yellowdoglinux.com)
CVS password:
cvs [login aborted]: connect to cvs.yellowdoglinux.com:2401 failed:
Connection r
efused
