On linux to increase the number of requests that can be handled inetd to the cvs service change the cvs line of inetd.conf from
cvspserver stream tcp nowait root /cvspath/cvs cvs --allow-root=/cvsrootpath pserver
to
cvspserver stream tcp nowait.100 root /cvspath/cvs cvs --allow-root=/cvsrootpath pserver
where the ".100" is the max requests per 60 second period. The default is 40. See inetd man pages for more info.

Since you know this is an inetd problem, I'm not sure why you're
reporting it as a CVS problem. Nevertheless, you need to check your
inetd documentation -- if inetd receives "too many" requests for the
same service in a short period of time, it decided that there's
something wrong and starts refusing the connection requests. Typically,
the service is automatically reenabled after some amount of time goes
by. What qualifies as "too many" is always adjustable, but exactly how
varies between inetd implementations, so you'll have to check the
documentation to find out how yours works (some have a single global
limit, others allow each service to have a different limit).
