Do you have a shell account on the server? Can you verify that the
command
/usr/bin/cvs server
actually works from the command line?
You stated in one of your first mail:

So, the Gentoo Linux CVS in /usr/bin/cvs is compiled without server
support (as the version information tells us). Thus, "cvs server" is not
supposed to work.
In contrast, the OpenSolaris system has the server functionality
compiled it. Thus, the opposite direction should work. I had to reread
this mail over and over again to recognise that Gentoo is intended to be
the CVS server, not OpenSolaris.
Thus, you have to recompile CVS on the Gentoo box and make sure that you
include the server functionality.
HTH,
Spiro.
