If your version doesn't, you're way overdue for an upgrade :) The documentation for CVSup 16.0 says "The modes provided for this are multiplexed mode, passive mode, SOCKS mode, and active mode. All but multiplexed mode are deprecated. Multiplexed mode can handle any situation that the other modes can handle. By default the channels are established in multiplexed mode, if the server is new enough to support it." I can't remember how long multiplexed mode has been the default, but I'm sure it was already the default in 15.4 or whatever was the last version before 16.0.
