Works from here. Are you sure you're not firewalled? I don't understand how 
you can receive 'connection refused' after it's already asked you for a 
password - you're already connected by then.

Can you cut and paste exactly what you see?

CVS password:

I do not think this is true.  I have just tried to do a cvs login to a 
unix machine at work which does not have a cvs server.  It still asks me 
for a password regardless of whether a cvs server is running or not.  It 
seems that as long as a valid host name is supplied, then a password 
will be prompted for before trying to communicate with the cvs server.

This would certainly help :)

For some time now we have seen framebuffer device drivers appear and then
disappear. Plus they are scattered every where and often several people
are working on the same driver without knowing each other. What I like to
see is drivers collected into one spot for people to grab. Such a spot
exist but people are not aware of it. That is at the fbdev web site. So if
you have a driver and would like to have it placed somewhere where people
might actually look at it and this way we can avoid code duplication
please let me or Geert know. We will gladly place it into CVS at the fbdev
sourceforge site.

Thank you.

CVS access

I'm trying to cross compile a Linux MIPS kernel on my x86 system to put
into an embedded board. I'm encountering some problems with compilation
of the stock kernels 2.4.x and 2.6.x from kernel.org. Perhaps the ones
on linux-mips.org are easier to compile. However I cannot get CVS access
following the directions on the linux-mips.org website. It says
authorization failed. Am I doing something incorrectly?

[bubba]$ cvs -d :pserver:cvs@ftp.linux-mips.org:/home/cvs loginLogging
in to :pserver:cvs@ftp.linux-mips.org:2401/home/cvs

There was a vulnerability found in CVS, so Ralf shut down CVS access
until he could find an appropriate fix.

pserver seems running (shouldn't it been sho^Wut down due to
vulnerabilities?).

But to help you: You'd rsync the whole CVS repo to a local machine and
then check-out locally. Oh, kernel.org vanilla kernels won't really
compile nor boot, I guess. All development is done here...

Ralf updated the CVS packages on lmo.org and reactivated the CVS 
anoncvs.  I checked out 2.6.7 yesterday via it, so it's definitely working.

CVS access

[Mattia Jona-Lasinio]

The sourceforge site has change their names for CVS access. Now there is a 
CVS access using

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@elks.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/elks login
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@elks.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/elks co modulename


Are the files retrieved using this site up to date? Or are they completely 
outdated?

Thanks!

modulename elks is accessable
modulenames elksnet,elkscmd, etc are not

pavilion CVSROOT # cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@elks.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/elksnet login
Logging in to :pserver:anonymous@elks.cvs.sourceforge.net:2401/cvsroot/elksnet
CVS password:

CVS password:
cvs login: authorization failed: server elks.cvs.sourceforge.net rejected access to /cvsroot/elkscmd for user anonymous

does anybody have thouse two modules? (no problem when old data)

The cvsroot should not be changed. the following is correct.

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@elks.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/elks login
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@elks.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/elks co modulename

where modulename is one of

elks		the true elks project
elks-0.2	seems to be empty
elks-0.3	seems to be empty
elkscmd		shells, editors and other stuff
elksnet		sort of tcp/ip stack
elkspages	seems to be the website
elksutils	seems to be empty
elksweb		again the website
elksweb2	still the website
