If you are using the Mandrake CVS RPM everything should be set up
automagically. You just need to add the path to your repository to
/etc/cvs/cvs.conf.
If you are using your own compiled version of CVS try this somewhat more
generic solution.
Try to add a file cvspserver to /etc/xinetd.d/, which contains
service cvspserver
{
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = root
passenv =
server = /usr/bin/cvs
server_args = --allow-root=/path/to/cvs/repo
}

I don't know what this has to do with trying to solve Ken's problem.

30 lines of text with just no information. Very interesting.
