Oh how stupid. I should have thought a second about why you use sudo
to set the permissions in the first place. You don't own that file so
cvs rightfully refuses to use it for authentication.

Do a

sudo chown darcusb:darcusb /Users/darcusb/.cvspass

assuming that your Unix username is darcusb and your primary group is
darcusb as well. You should then see something like:

-rw-------  1 darcusb  darcusb  173 14 Nov 14:19 /Users/darcusb/.cvspass

Markus
