i m using cvsup -L 2 so it should has verbose output. but unfortunately, it didn't output anything. i also guess that maybe the connection is slow, so i keep waiting for the cvsup connection after the "running" line. after a few minutes of froze, it show something like: Detailer failed: Premature EOF from server Will Retry at 11:04:54 i m using the same CD to install freebsd in my house and my friend's house and i have no problem cvsup-ing at all. That's why at the beginning i guess that there are some firewall setting prevent me from cvsup-ing in my school. Does anyone experience the EOF problems before? Thanks for looking and answering. --- Lowell Gilbert <freebsd-questions-local@be-well.no-ip.com> wrote: > yew chin <yutaka82@yahoo.com> writes: > > > thanks for answering, i will try to learn how to > use > > ctm.
