I've just taken the standard ports-supfile, changed the default base to "/usr" and added my local cvsup mirror, but I get continual connection time-outs (transcript below). I've also tried other cvsup servers in Germany, the UK, as well as the central mirrors. Same deal across the board, and this has been going on for over a week. The machine is behind a firewall, but I've managed to download packages from the FreeBSD FTP server. Any pointers as to how to resolve this? Thanks N ========= merlin# cvsup -g -L 2 /usr/share/examples/cvsup/myports-supfile Parsing supfile "/usr/share/examples/cvsup/myports-supfile" Connecting to cvsup.ch.FreeBSD.org Connected to cvsup.ch.FreeBSD.org Server software version: SNAP_16_1h Negotiating file attribute support Exchanging collection information Establishing multiplexed-mode data connection Running Updating collection ports-all/cvs Checkout ports/MOVED Detailer failed: Network write failure: Connection timed out Will retry at 15:39:38 Retrying Connecting to cvsup.ch.FreeBSD.org Connected to cvsup.ch.FreeBSD.org Server software version: SNAP_16_1h Negotiating file attribute support Exchanging collection information Establishing multiplexed-mode data connection Running Updating collection ports-all/cvs Checkout ports/MOVED Detailer failed: Network write failure: Connection timed out Will retry at 15:56:30
