You need to change the permissions on cvsroot (not cvsroot/CVSROOT). 
For CVSweb to work, the web server user needs to have read and execute 
access to the cvsroot directory.  My directory permissions are as follows:
drwxrwxr-x   7 noackjr  cvs       -  512 Jul  9  2004 cvsroot
drwxrwxr-x   7 noackjr  cvs       -  512 Dec 16 15:47 cvsroot/CVSROOT
