Once upon a time port 4691 was blocked on my internet connection, too (I am connected through a community-operated public wireless meshnetwork called Freifunk). Thanksfully I have SSH access to a box ('peking') at my university. First I created a SSH tunnel: ssh -L4691:org.openembedded.dev:4691 peking -N and then led all traffic go to through it: mtn --db OE.mtn pull localhost org.openembedded.dev Worked like a charm. :) If outgoing ssh is blocked by the companies' firewall you should ask them to open it though.
