The CvsTutorial covers a lot of material which is great. However there are RedHatLinux differences which should be noted.
Note that RedHat has a different meaning on this wiki, see SixThinkingHats.
For example, when you get to the inetd part of pserver in RedHatLinux 7.2 try these commands:
service cvspserver {
socket_type= stream protocol= tcp wait= no user= root passenv = PATH server = /usr/bin/cvs server_args= -f --allow-root=/usr/cvsroot pserver disable = no}
make sure /etc/services has this line in there:
cvspserver2401/tcp
Next:
you can also do /sbin/service xinetd restart
