If what you want is a checked-out version of the head of some branch, 
that stays up-do-date every time someone does a commit, this will do 
what you want:

http://ximbiot.com/cvs/manual/cvs-1.11.21/cvs_18.html#SEC177

If what you want is a static copy of some version available to users, 
simply tag the version and then check out the code from that tag 
wherever you want it.

If what you want is a single sandbox where everybody works, however, you 
are going to have significant problems with that. CVS is intended to fix 
those problems (and does it relatively well.) There's no good reason to 
work that way, so don't do it.
