They are all well-documented in the Cederqvist manual
(doc/cvs.texinfo) that comes with CVS.

The "--allow-root" error is often due to an inetd that requires
argv[0] to be explicitly specified.  For example, on such systems, the
following inetd.conf command will not work:

cvspserver  stream   tcp  nowait  root  /usr/local/bin/cvs  
--allow-root=/usr/local/cvs pserver

But this one will work:

cvspserver  stream   tcp  nowait  root  /usr/local/bin/cvs cvs  
--allow-root=/usr/local/cvs pserver
