in version 1.1.7 i got message:

CVS Login FAILED with command:
C:\Program Files\Total Commander\Plugins\wfx\CVSBrowser\cvs.exe -d:pserver:user:my,pass@200.0.1.3:2401:/cvs login

and start directory:
C:\Program Files\Total Commander\Plugins\wfx\CVSBrowser

returned:

cvs.exe login: CVSROOT may only specify a positive, non-zero, integer port (not `2401:').
cvs.exe login: Perhaps you entered a relative pathname?
cvs.exe [login aborted]: Bad CVSROOT: `:pserver:user:my,pass@200.0.1.3:2401:/cvs'.

  As explained in the help file (chapter "CVS Root and Repositories") an entry should be specified as follows:
  
  [:method:][[user][:password]@]hostname[:[port]]/path/to/repository
  
  in your case you should remove the : after the port number.
