Hi all,

I'm in need of a little help in setting up a CVSup client. I'm sure there's 
something simple I'm missing. Here are the details:


bash-2.05$ uname -a
FreeBSD thor.geeksatlarge.com 4.3-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.3-RELEASE #0: Sat Apr 21 
10:54:49 GMT 2001     jkh@narf.osd.bsdi.com:/usr/src/sys/compile/GENERIC  
i386
bash-2.05$ /usr/local/bin/cvsup -v
CVSup client, GUI version
Software version: REL_16_1
Protocol version: 16.1

bash-2.05$ cat /root/bin/supfile
*default tag=RELENG_4
*default host=cvsup7.freebsd.org
*default prefix=/usr
*default base=/usr/local/etc/cvsup
*default release=cvs delete use-rel-suffix compress
src-all
ports-all tag=.
doc-all tag=.
The following is the error message I'm getting:

thor# /usr/local/bin/cvsup -g -L 2 /root/bin/supfile /var/tmp/dest
Parsing supfile "/root/bin/supfile"
Connecting to cvsup7.freebsd.org
Connected to cvsup7.freebsd.org
Protocol negotiation failed: See 
http://www.polstra.com/projects/freeware/CVSup/s1g/ for upgrading 
information

Could this be something as simple as an upgrade as stated, or do I have the 
wrong hostname, or is there something else that I'm not aware of?

TIA,
Ron
