I doubt that you have an entry for services in your /etc/services;
that should almost certainly be service cvspserver instead.

 env= HOME=/home/cvs

Why are you forcing a setting for $HOME?  Without that, CVS will set it
appropriately for each user as they connect.

 passenv=

Not even $PATH?

 server-args= --allow-root=/var/lib/cvsroot pserver

There should be a -f in there, too.

There's an example configuration for xinetd in the CVS manual, have you
read it?

Re: pserver never starts running

[david]

 Hello all,
 I am having trouble with my cvs remote login.  It appears that my 
 pserver doesn't start running.

Under what circumstances?
 
 My OS is Redhat 9.0
 
 It is running xinetd
 
 My /etc/xinetd.d/cvspserver file looks like this
 
 # default: off
 # description: An internal xinetd service, listing active services.
 service services
 {
 disable= no
 id= cvspserver
 env= HOME=/home/cvs
 port= 2401
 socket_type= stream
 protocol= tcp
 wait= no
 user= root
 passenv=
 server= /usr/bin/cvs
 server-args= --allow-root=/var/lib/cvsroot pserver
 }
 
 When I type:
 telnet [host] 2401 from my windoze machine is says: Connection to 
 [host]...Could not open a connection to host on port 2401 : Connect 
 failed.  ([host] is either jake or 192.168.0.155)

Have you rebooted or anything since putting this in cvspserver?
Or typed
kill -SIGUSR2 xinetd
as root, to get xinetd to reread its configuration files?

If you've done either of these, then I don't know what could be
going on.
