You have (at least) two options:
- first use repository prefix (a free choosen name that serves as an
  alias for the repository set in control pannel), make shure it
  starts whit '/'

- second use ':pserver:ansi at 192.168.0.226:/e//cvsroot' as your CVSROOT
  which will be understood by the server
