Temp directory is the system temp dir by default unless you change it.  Make
sure everyone has appropriate permissions for that as well as your
repositories.  Also if you are using impersonation (on by default) you'll
need to allow the CVS users access.

I have documented one possible setup, you should be able to extrapolate to
what you want.  See:
