That wouldn\'t work even if the CVS was working properly. init is a write function, which anonymous pserver access doesn\'t have permission for.
Even if you *had* write access, you don\'t want to init the repository anyway. Init is meant only to start a new repository, and PS\'s repository is already there. It wouldn\'t do any damage, because init doesn\'t erase what is already there, but you wouldn\'t do anything useful either.
I think what you meant to do was check out the source, which you can do from an anonymous connection (though you couldn\'t commit any changes back into the repository).
try this
cvs checkout -P :pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/planeshift planeshift
(assuming planeshift is the module name, not sure about that and I\'m too lazy to look it up

)
If you want write access to the repository, you\'d have to become a member of the development team.
