CVSup builds two connections: one from the client to the server to send the version information of all the files you got to the server, another one from the server to the client to send all the edits and changes to your box. > I have ed0 and bpf in my kernel, and I used 'dhclient ed0' to connect. > Everything else works fine: ssh, ftp, and netscape. You have to allow incoming connections for the CVSup data port. See it's manpage. Additional literature may be found at Mr. Polstra's website. (www.polstra.com, IIRC.)
