Because pserver is not supported by these servers, i think. Look at the entry
"protocols" in the cvs-server list.

I don't know very much about this pserver access, but do you really need it?
According to anoncvs.html it is "a direct tcp connection instead of using ssh or rsh"

So you have ssh installed.
Read anoncvs.html again and follow the instructions that describe 
cvs with ssh.
