This command is missign the -d that is present in the 1st cvs command, it
should probably read:

  jar@rosebud:~$ cvs -z3d:pserver:ano...@cv...:/cvsroot/jscheme co jscheme


It looks like you might be using Bash, so alternativly, you could do:

  jar@rosebud:~$ export CVSROOT=d:pserver:ano...@cv...:/cvsroot/jscheme
  jar@rosebud:~$ cvs login
  (Logging in to ano...@cv...)
  CVS password: 
  jar@rosebud:~$ cvs -z3 co jscheme


Hope this helps,
