Manually doing everything, try this for logging in to CVS Boost:
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous_at_[hidden]:/cvsroot/boost login
and this for checking out all of Boost:
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous_at_[hidden]:/cvsroot/boost co boost
I have never gotten WinCVS to work automatically. I think it is just broken
or incapable of doing it <g>. If you, or anybody really knows how to get the
beast to work automatically, feel free to tell me about it. In the meantime
the manual method should work.
