[-- Attachment #1 --]
Has anyone in this huge world ever had a problem with getting CVSUP to work through his or her companyfs firewall?  My company will change the firewall configuration to make it work, but I need to know what changes to make first.  I know that CVSUP can work on any but the popular ports, and that it defaults to 5999, what I need to know is:
1)       Do I need to open up 5999 only, or are other ports involved as well?
2)       Do I need to enable both outgoing and incoming on port 5999?
3)       Do I need to enable both TCP/IP and UDP on 5999?
4)       Are there any other items I should be considering?
 
Ifm sure Ifll have questions until this works, but this is all I could think of for now.  I also have posted another question called CVSUP Question that has information on the error messages I am getting.
 
As always, any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks
