[linux] CVS server issue + solution

I was trying to use my computer to serve a CVS repository. Should be
simple as connecting through SSH,
but I was getting the error "unknown command server" whenever I typed
"cvs up -d"

The solution in Gentoo Linux was to re-emerge CVS with the server flag
enabled, which can be done by adding the line "dev-util/cvs server" to
/etc/portage/package.use
