Yes, you need to create the xinetd files.  See the manual at: 
http://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/cvs-1.11.6/cvs_2.html#SEC30 assuming 
you're using the lastest released version. My working 
/etc/xinetd.d/cvspserver is below for reference. (Your path may be 
different since I use the tarball rather than RH9's distribution).

service cvspserver
{
   port        = 2401
   socket_type = stream
   protocol    = tcp
   wait        = no
   user        = root
   passenv     = PATH
   server      = /usr/local/bin/cvs
   server_args = -f --allow-root=<full_path_to_repository> pserver
}
