Hi!

> admin to open 5999 port?

No, there is not. Well, there is, sort of ...

Please, people! If Port 5999 is blocked, the responsible person
doesn't want you to use CVSup. You will have to clear that issue.

Of course with the help of someone outside of your company
or a system sitting at your home which is connected to the
Internet you could use an SSL tunnel or an SSH tunnel or ...
... provided that ports 443 or 22 are permitted, that is.

But how happy do you think your admin will be if he ever finds out?
