"Permission denied" indicates that the user you're running as doesn't
have read and execute permission on that directory or doesn't have
execute permission on one of the parent directories.  What user are you
logged in as locally when it works?  What user are you running as with
pserver when it doesn't work?  Is there anything in your CVSROOT/config
file other than comments?  Do your CVSROOT/passwd entries contain two
fields or three?

CVS doesn't use UDP, so you should probably remove that line.
