I recently started enforcing what has been the policy all along:
freefall's CVSup services are only for public FreeBSD mirror sites
and for committers. The load caused by other CVSup users was
becoming too high.

The cvsup-mirror port lets you specify which master server you want to
update from. The default that it offers you, freefall, is correct
for public mirror sites but it is not appropriate for everybody.
It's easy to change your master server if you're using the cvsup-mirror
port. Just edit "/usr/local/etc/cvsup/config.sh" and change these
two lines:
host="freefall.freebsd.org"
host_crypto="freefall.freebsd.org"
I'd suggest either "cvsup2.freebsd.org" or "cvsup.freebsd.org" if
you are in the USA. Each is updated hourly from freefall.
