[Devil-linux-develop] CVS server login timeout

[Wenshui C. <ch...@as...>]

Hi,

During the pass 4 hours, I was failed to login cvs server for
downloading a copy of build package. I saw my SYNC package sent to
server cvs.devil-linux.sourceforge.net but nothing back. Although ping,
sent from Taipei, successfully rate is low(less than 70%), the server
did response and its rtt is around 170ms. The site status on sf.net does
not show any downtime announcement.

For this is my first time trying to login CVS server, I would like to
make sure the what I did is correct. I submit a command as below:

cvs
-d:pserver:ano...@cv...:/cvsroot/devil-linux login

After  "CVS password:" prompt, I simply hit the enter key. A few minutes
later, I got these reponse:
"cvs [login aborted]: connect to
cvs.devil-linux.sourceforge.net(66.35.250.209):2401 failed: Connection
timed out"

My ping result are:

[root@hyena lfssystem]# ping cvs.devil-linux.sourceforge.net
