Either you don't have -f on the pserver command line in /etc/inetd.conf
(or equivalent) or your pserver has $HOME set in its environment (which
it shouldn't, probably because inetd has it set in *its* environment,
which it shouldn't). See the archives of this list:
http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
if you need more info or help. This is *THE* most frequently asked FAQ.
