Here's my /etc/xinetd.d/cvspserver:

    # Converted by inetdconvert
    service cvspserver
    {
     socket_type  = stream
     protocol  = tcp
     wait   = no
     user   = root
     server   = /usr/bin/cvs
     server_args  = -f --allow-root=/usr/lib/cvs
     disable   = no
    }

It works and was generated directly by the RedHat 7.0 installer.  It's
possible your 7.0 install upgraded you to CVS 1.10.7 and it's causing
problems too.  You might try the 1.11 available on CVSHome.org:

    ftp://ftp.cvshome.org/pub/linux/rpm/cvs-1.11-1.i386.rpm

It doesn't expect xinetd yet, so you'll have to configure that yourself.
