Not really as straightforward as you are used to, but

	netstat -rn

will display all connections, then you can look for those to port 2041.

I have to say, I am mystified that this would ever be a common piece of 
information you would need.  CVS is a connectionless protocol; the only time a 
user is "connected" is when they are actually transferring files to or from the 
server.  There is no way to know who is "logged in" to a repository.  I can only 
imagine you are trying to find out who is hanging the repository...
