What is the exact text of the error message you get?  Are you running
pserver as root, or as some other user?  Have you specified --allow-root
on the pserver command line and is it correct?  It may be helpful if you
provide the exact line from inetd.conf, the value of $CVSROOT, the exact
command you give, and the exact results you get back.
