What version of CVS are you using? The current release (1.11.1p1) has
better error messages that you may find helpful (it also has a number of
bug fixes). But in this case, the problem is obvious (to the
experienced observer):

The repository you specified, "/cvs", doesn't match the --allow-root
option in inetd.conf, "/Volumes/Data/cvs/" (which shouldn't have that
trailing "/" on it and there should also be a "-t" global option in the
command).
