Have a look into your configuration file (/etc/cvsnt/PServer). Make sure
the parameters are set correctly (especially the first two):

Repository0=/usr/local/cvsrep
Repository0Name=/usr/local/cvsrep
Repository0Description=Local Repository
Repository0Default=1
Repository0Publish=1
Repository0Online=1

Hope this helps

Best regards
