cvs release fails with :ext:/ssh


I am trying to do a cvs release when my CVSROOT is set to 
:ext:<user>@cvs......:/cvsroot/......

Here is a transcript of what I am doing:

$ cvs -t -d$CVSROOT release dpkg
cvs release: notice: main loop with CVSROOT=:ext:mgpaulus@cvs.debian-cygwin.sour
ceforge.net:/cvsroot/debian-cygwin
 -> Starting server: ssh cvs.debian-cygwin.sourceforge.net -l mgpaulus cvs serve
r
mgpaulus@cvs.debian-cygwin.sourceforge.net's password:
 -> run_popen(cvs -n -q -d :ext:mgpaulus@cvs.debian-cygwin.sourceforge.net:/cvsr
oot/debian-cygwin update,r)
update: invalid option --
Usage: cvs update [-APdflRp] [-k kopt] [-r rev|-D date] [-j rev]
    [-I ign] [-W spec] [files...]
        -A      Reset any sticky tags/date/kopts.
        -P      Prune empty directories.
        -C      Overwrite locally modified files with clean repository copies.
        -d      Build directories, like checkout does.
        -f      Force a head revision match if tag/date not found.
        -l      Local directory only, no recursion.
        -R      Process directories recursively.
        -p      Send updates to standard output (avoids stickiness).
        -k kopt Use RCS kopt -k option on checkout.
        -r rev  Update using specified revision/tag (is sticky).
        -D date Set date to update from (is sticky).
        -j rev  Merge in changes made between current revision and rev.
        -I ign  More files to ignore (! to reset).
        -W spec Wrappers specification line.
(Specify the --help global option for a list of other help options)
cvs release: unable to release `dpkg'

ALSO, this thing is hanging at the end, like it is waiting for something.....
