I assume you're running pserver. You need to add a -f global option to
the cvs command in inetd.conf if it isn't there already, then you need
to unset $HOME that your inetd is helpfully setting (incorrectly!) for
you -- change inetd to use env to run cvs with a pristene environment or
run a shell script that unsets $HOME and then exec's cvs.
