By default Gentoo does not enable server support when
building/installing CVS.  You need to enable the "server" USE flag
(typically editting /etc/make.conf is best) and re-run
"emerge -va cvs" (or similar).

When installed properly, running "cvs --version" on the Gentoo
box should claim "... (client/server)", not just "... (client)".
