There should be either a horde/config/conf.php or horde/config/horde.php
depending on your version of horde.  That is where you set the admin at.

You create users in SQL, and set their passwords in SQL stored in MD5
format.  Once you create the admin account in SQL, I think you can create
the rest (if needed) via the horde admin interface (not 100% sure as I
don't use SQL).

"CVS" can mean to things: The suite of programs, or data (code) in a CVS
repository.

CVS software (the programs used to manipulate CVS repositories) are fine
for use in any environment, including production environments, as long as
they are used correctly/carefully.

CVS code in a repository can be split into "branches" such as release,
release+patches, development, etc.  For Horde, there are two types of
general branches: RELENG (release+patches) and HEAD (development).  It
is generally okay to use RELENG code in production (though not everyone
needs to or likes to).  It is not advised to use HEAD code in production.
