type
cvs --version
on the commandline. It tells you, whether its GNU CVS or CVSNT...

Well, but you have to...
The configuration file is
/etc/cvsnt/PServer
If it's the same package in Ubuntu and Debian, then it is not there, but
instead you'll find a PServer.example which you can copy/rename to
PServer. This file is very well documented and there is no problem with
the correct syntax and the like, because every options is already there
