Can I copy .cvspass files or portions of them?
----------------------------------------------

Yes, you can.  You can copy `.cvspass' files from machine to machine,
and you can even copy individual lines from one .cvspass file to
another.  For high-latency servers, this may be faster than running cvs
login from each working copy machine.

Remember that if you transport a .cvspass file between two machines with
different line-ending conventions, it probably won't work (of course,
you can probably do the line-end conversion manually without too much
trouble).
