Here are some pointers for you, and for possible inclusion in your "getting
started" document.
CVSHome.org is re-organizing their site, and the Win32 command-line client
is hard to find. Here is the direct URL for the latest version:
http://ftp.cvshome.org/win32/cvs-1-11-2.zip
Concurrent Versions System (CVS) 1.11.2 (client)
cvs.exe dated 2002-05-06
I just now tested that client against the parrot CVS server; it works:
set CVSROOT=:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs/public
cvs login
cvs -Q -z3 checkout parrot
Please consider using -z in your CVS commands; See Dan's message on this:

The old CvsGui.org site, which covers CVS GUIs for multiple platforms has
moved onto the WinCvs site:
http://www.wincvs.org/
Here is command-line CVS or Mac (Old-school and OS-X):
http://ftp.cvshome.org/macintosh/
And finally, a Google directory for those who desire further research:
http://directory.google.com/Top/Computers/Software/Configuration_Management/Tools/Concurrent_Versions_System/
Hope this helps,
