Unfortunately CVS tends not to be terribly verbose in its error messages.
It's possible that your host isn't able to be reverse-resolved - and the
cvs server is set up (for security reasons) to reject connections in this
case, I believe. Monty may be able to give a more definitive answer here.

As for code - you should send a patch to this list (vorbis-dev. NOT vorbis.
It is not appropriate to send mail to both lists in most cases, like you
did). Someone (since this is oggenc, almost certainly me) will commit your
patch if it is appropriate.
