My mistake. From the nongnu.org version of CVS, server.c:
/* The Authentication Protocol. Client sends:
*
* BEGIN AUTH REQUEST\n
* <REPOSITORY>\n
* <USERNAME>\n
* <PASSWORD>\n
* END AUTH REQUEST\n
*
* Server uses above information to authenticate, then sends
*
* I LOVE YOU\n
*
* if it grants access, else
*
* I HATE YOU\n
*
* if it denies access (and it exits if denying).
This is from the void function pserver_authenticate_connection().
As Tony said: it's part of the basic protocol and cannot be changed
without breaking every existing CVS server in the world (both CVSNT and
nongnu.org CVS).
