Anyway, the example might contain a US based server, but the main servers are noted in the Handbook. And for the US it is a SSH only. I would assume the text is correct and the example is not. Please submit a bugreport to the doc team ;) Note that you can determine which ports you update with cvsup as well. Would the base system be enough?
