and provides tools for setting up a rootjail.

This server can be useful if you want to run a public cvs pserver. You
should however be aware of the security limitations of running a cvs
pserver. If you want any kind of authentication you should really consider
using secure shell as a secure authentication mechanism and transport.
Passwords used with cvs pserver are transmitted in plaintext.

You should probably disable the pserver from the cvs package.
