Here is an example of a 6-hour lapse: Yeah, it seems a lot of slots have been taken up by a Turkish resort chain (Joy Hotels) where each one of the resort behind their own Turk Telecom DSL line/IP is banging cvsup4.us for a constant CVsup update every couple of minutes.

(which should also help you) If not, I will have to track their admins down (or if that doesn't work - rate limit them) :S > An application for CVSUP-MASTER access was lodged by hostmaster@au on > July 3.

You should really get access to cvsup-master since it only accepts connections from other top-tier mirrors (and since it's hosted at Yahoo!, your network path to it should be similar to ISC/cvsup4.us) That being said, so let me know if you still have issues accessing cvsup4.us.
