That's not a matter of Ubuntu vs. other Unix systems; you're simply
expecting a C-style shell while most modern Unix systems provide a
Bourne-style shell by default. If your expectations are based on a C
shell, you'll probably need to get used to the shell mostly from
scratch.

Try 'export CVSHOME=/whatever/directory'.

Cheers,
