X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 29 Sep 2003 18:00:55 -0000 Its been over a few weeks now after installing freebsd 5.0 and still can not run cvsupdate and portupgrade on one my servers. We are behind a firewall and proxy server. All traffic to the internet uses a proxy server for connection. I have been searching for ways to try to get the cvs working from behind the firewall and no one seems to know how to do it. Or at least I can not find the solution. The box has full internet access, but I simply can not have a ping to outside. i.e ping www.yahoo.com and or any server on the net would not work. but netscape and browsers can get out. Can any one suggest a solution? I cann't think that there are so many people out there asking for this and there is simply no way to do it. BSD51# cvsup -P m /root/ports-supfile Unknown host "cvsup6.FreeBSD.org" Tried on a windows machine cvs -d :pserver;proxy=121.15.222.232;proxyport=8080:anonymous@cvsup6.FreeBSD.org:/ login cvs [login aborted]: Proxy server 121.15.222.232 does not support HTTP tunnelling Do I have the defaultrouter in rc.conf? yes and again I can get to the internet via browsers fine. ______________________________________________________________________ Post your free ad now! http://personals.yahoo.ca
