Using a Bourne Shell (ksh, sh, bash, ash):

  CVS_SSH=ssh; export CVS_SSH

Using a C Shell (csh, tcsh):

  setenv CVS_SSH ssh

might be useful if the CVS server was configured
to try to use 'rsh' rather than 'ssh' for the
:ext: method.

You may also wish to try adding -vvv to the
command to see better what is happening:

  cvs -vvv -d :ext:userlogin@xxxx:xx checkout xxxx

if you see it running 'rsh' rather than 'ssh' then
you will have found the culprit.

        Good luck,
