With froggy I had NO problems with cvsup *and* I was using my Windoze box as my dialup and gateway box (because FreeBSD was screwing with my emails) /usr/share/examples/cvsup# nmap -O froggy.com.au Starting nmap V. 2.54BETA22 ( www.insecure.org/nmap/ ) Warning: OS detection will be MUCH less reliable because we did not find at least 1 open and 1 closed TCP port Interesting ports on (202.129.90.33): (The 1533 ports scanned but not shown below are in state: filtered) Port State Service 21/tcp open ftp 25/tcp open smtp 80/tcp open http 1026/tcp open nterm 1032/tcp open iad3 3389/tcp open msrdp 5800/tcp open vnc 5900/tcp open vnc 6050/tcp open arcserve No exact OS matches for host (test conditions non-ideal). 3) Now I have moved to Telstra Bigpond ADSL, and the problem has returned.
