So you're successfully starting the server, but it's rejecting access. 
That means that either the repository you specified doesn't match one of
the --allow-root options on the server (although it looks like it does),
the username you've specified isn't valid (it appears to be), or the
password doesn't match.  What version of CVS are you running?  You
should be able to do "cvs version" on the client to get both the client
and server versions -- if that doesn't work, you almost certainly need
to upgrade.  You should also check the syslog on the server machine for
messages from CVS that can aid in problem determination.
