Just for clarification:
my /etc/inetd.conf configuration:
cvspserver      stream  tcp     nowait.4000     root    /usr/sbin/tcpd  
/usr/sbin/cvs-pserver

my /etc/xinetd.d/cvspserver config:
service cvspserver
        {
        disable         = no
        port            = 2401
        socket_type     = stream
        protocol        = tcp
        wait            = no
        user            = cvsd
        passenv         = PATH
#       server          = /usr/sbin/cvsd
        server          = /usr/sbin/cvs-pserver
        log_type        = FILE /var/log/cvspserver
        env             = '$CVSROOT=/usr/cvsroot'
#       server_args     = -f --allow-root=/var/lib/cvsd/usr/cvsroot pserver
        server_args     = -f --allow-root=/usr/cvsroot pserver
        }

All repositories are located in /usr/cvsroot

What I've done:
disabled inetd and xinetd
renamed: /usr/cvsroot/CVSROOT
launched: cvsd-buildroot /usr/cvsroot/

creating /usr/cvsroot//dev devices... already there.
adding users to /usr/cvsroot//etc/passwd....
fixing ownership... done.
chrooted system created in /usr/cvsroot/
if your cvs binary changes (new version) you should rerun cvsd-buildroot

launched /etc/init.d/cvsd start

still have problems:

cvs checkout: authorization failed: server cvs rejected access to /usr/cvsroot 
for user xyz
Checkout failed. at /usr/local/bin/process_component_file.pl line 51.
FAILED to process component files
