In the archives of the info-cvs list is an email from address@hidden
describing how to set this up, and there's a reply from
address@hidden with an additional suggestion.
Use something like this:
service cvspserver
{
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = root
env = HOME=/home/pamirian/cvsroot
server = /usr/bin/cvs
server_args = -f --allow-root=/home/pamirian/cvsroot pserver
}

Partly, but mainly because if HOME is set, cvs tries to read ${HOME}/.cvsrc
immediately when it starts, unless you run "cvs -f ...."
