... with "-d:pserver:anonymous@puffin.external.hp.com:/home/cvs/parisc"
in there too, or your current environment's $CVSROOT set accordingly.

The -q and -z3 flags are good too, to avoid unnecessary chatter and to
compress the data stream a bit.  Avoid the temptation to crank up to -z9
as this just puts the server on its back for minimal gain.
