Backup on a CVS project started with b does not work

[thijsj]

We try to backup one of our CVS projects with rsync. And have failures since Friday.

It seems that port 873 on b.cvs.sourceforge.net does not work.
It works for a or d.

Hello,

Thank you for this report, I tried the following command, and this is the output I received:

$ rsync -av blijf.cvs.sourceforge.net::cvsroot/blijf/* .
rsync: failed to connect to blijf.cvs.sourceforge.net: Connection refused (61)
rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at /SourceCache/rsync/rsync-35.2/rsync/clientserver.c(105) [receiver=2.6.9]

Indeed, there seems to be an issue there. I'm escalating this ticket to our operations team for further review.

Greetings,

I have fixed the problem with CVS rsync. You should now be able to rsync your files for backup.
