Most likely the server is CVS 1.10.6, in which pserver is broken.  If
so, please get the latest interim release (1.10.8) from www.cyclic.com
instead.  If not, then inetd is unable to start CVS for some reason --
check your inetd.conf again carefully and look for error messages from
inetd (typically in syslog).  You should also read "Trouble making a
connection to a CVS server" in the Cederqvist manual for more
troubleshooting advice.  Once you're past this problem, you'll probably
have the same problems that everybody else has trying to run pserver on
Linux -- check the archives of info-cvs at http://www.egroups.com or
ftp://ftp-mailing-list-archives.gnu.org for the solutions.
