When you telnet to port 2401 (the pserver) your not supposed to actually get
a login prompt like telnet or ftp gives you. The pserver will just wait for
the auth protocol. What happens when you try `cvs -d
:pserver:USER AT SERVER:/path/to/cvsroot login'?

If that doesn't work you may have a mis-configuration... How did you set up
inetd? Here's my cvspserver directive in inetd.conf:

  cvspserver stream tcp nowait root /usr/bin/cvs cvs --allow-root=/repos/cvs
pserver

Also have you added the following to your
C:WINNT\system32\drivers\etc\services?

  cvspserver       2401/tcp
