Idk. That all looks like it should work. I suppose the /var directory is
executable? And you're not using ACLs or anything that would override
those permissions?

That alias statement is going to cause problems because the alias
location ends with a slash and the directory location doesn't. Either of
the following would be better:
Alias /repository /var/cvs/repository
Alias /repository/ /var/cvs/repository/
Also I think you need to write "Option Indexes" instead of "Option
Index"
