Yes, it is in principle impossible to do that using cvs.
There is a command (forgot the name) that looks in the modules file
and sends the result back, but this is only meaningful if someone
constantly updates this file manually. So it is of no use.
To be able to browse the repository you need another service running
on the CVS server. The one I use is CVSWEB and you can read more here:
