RE: Any firewalls between you and the CVS?

Curt,

Our IS guys are great.

Here is the error message I was getting when the Firewall was up:
cvs login
(Logging in to anoncvs@xml.apache.org)
cvs [login aborted]: connect to xml.apache.org:2401 failed: Connection
refused

*****CVS exited normally with code 1*****

Here is what happened when the firewall was turned off:
cvs login
(Logging in to anoncvs@xml.apache.org)
cvs [login aborted]: connect to xml.apache.org:2401 failed: Connection
refused


Any ideas?

I haven't found away around the problem for myself and my IS guys are not
real forthcoming.  I did a little digging previously and found some mentions
of how to configure CVS to work around a firewall
using SOCKS.

The CVS page say newer versions of SOCKS can support standard versions of
CVS

Posted by Dirk-Willem van Gulik <di...@webweaving.org>.
Can you folks do a

	telnet xml.apache.org 2401
and then type 
	hi

You should get (if there are no firwalls in your way,
and if your machine is in DNS and all that)

>	telnet xml.apache.org 2401
	Trying 63.211.145.10...
	Connected to xml.apache.org.
	Escape character is '^]'.
>	h!
	cvs [pserver aborted]: bad auth protocol start: hi!

	Connection closed by foreign host.

I.e. type the lines marked '>'. And check what you get back.
