Re: [Springframework-developer] anonymous CVS access disabled?

[Colin S. <col...@ex...>]

SF anon servers have been hosed to various degress for the last 2-3 
months, pending a hardware upgrade. As per my message below, try using 
the alternate server they have, which should be fine (I just verified 
this morning)

 >>>>>

It's a little known fact that Sourceforge has an alternate CVS server 
setup for people to access when they are behind a firewall, as described 
here:
 
http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=14033&group_id=1#firewall 

Try hitting that address instead. While they say it redirects to 
cvs.sourceforge.net, it seems to redirect to the committer's cvs server, 
not the 24 hour delayed anon cvs server. Anon access via this address is 
t anon access is _way_ faster, and there is no time delay.

In any case, according to the last SF update, they are almost done their 
switchover to new hardware...

Colin
