Finally I found the solution.

Please configure your /etc/xinetd.conf and restart it.

Anyway, thanks a lot.

That looks fine. I don't have the port setting in mine, but it shouldn't 
matter.

The relevant section of my services file is:

cvspserver      2401/tcp
cvspserver      2401/udp

In your original file you had the line

>>>       server_args     = -f --allow-root=/var/cvsroot pserver
>>>
>>>      
>>>
This is a different directory than the one above. You would need to put 
your password file in the appropriate directory.

Have you run ...

cvs -d /home/cvsroot init

The only thing I can see wrong at this point is getting everything 
pointing to the same directory and maybe running the above command 
(changing the directory if needed).
