RESEND: If this is the wrong list, which one is more
        appropriate. Perhaps freebsd-doc? 

I've been messing around with building ports directly from
cvs. The examples in the anoncvs section of the Handbook indicate
that the pserver access method is available for:

  anoncvs.freebsd.org

ie

  setenv CVSROOT :pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.FreeBSD.org:/home/ncvs

Should allow a cvs login using "anoncvs" as the password.

Unfortunately, we get this error:

  cvs [login aborted]: connect to anoncvs.FreeBSD.org(128.46.156.46):2401
  failed: Connection refused

Is this because pserver has been disabled on that server,
because the connection limit has been exceeded, or some
other issue?

Note that I've been able to use pserver for other servers listed
in anoncvs just fine.

Cheers, Ralph
