Quoting Edmond Baroud (SoHo@admin.fido.ca): > I've had the same situation here and I couldn't convince our "security" team to open 5999 for my cvsups. I do have ssh (22tcp) open, and a box at home, on which I setup xinetd to accept connections on localhost:5999 => cvsup7.freebsd.org:5999 added cvsup7.freebsd.org as alias to my localhost in /etc/hosts and tunneled 5999 through ssh between my office_box and my home_box ;) > > hope this helps, > > Ed. > > Quoting Igor Pokrovsky (igor.pokrovsky@cnrm.meteo.fr): > > Hello, > > > > I'm in despair.
