You can just do a "touch /root/.cvspass" before doing the login - this
should solve your problem. In accordance with the rule of only doing as
root what must be done as root, you may want to get the files and build
netatalk as a non-privileged user and then do the install as root. It's
just a good habit to cultivate.
Good luck.
