hi,

open a file named cvs in xinetd.d directory and add following lines:

service cvspserver
{
        socket_type     = stream
        wait            = no
        user            = root
        server          = /usr/bin/cvs
        server_args     = -f --allow-root=/usr/local/repos pserver
        disable         = no
}

where cvspserver is the defined /etc/services file as an alias for the cvs 
port. and in place of "/usr/local/repos" substitute ur own CVSROOT. save this 
file and restart xinetd. (/etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd restart)

Hope this helps u.

bye
