Just a thought ... try 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost on the server side of your PuTTY tunnel. I think openssh is (for whatever reason, now) considering localhost to go to an IPv6 address/port that isn't being listened on & it isn't gracefully falling back to 127.0.0.1.
Making this change allowed my PuTTY tunnel (to Qpopper) to start working again. regards Adam ----- Original Message ----- From: "Fred Preston" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, June 29, 2005 3:31 AM Subject: Fw: Downloading from CVS Hi Apache infrastructure, I can use putty to logon to minotaur using my user id and password. I am using the SSH tunnel ( localhost:2401). I have my CVSROOT setup as :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:2401:/home/cvs. When I use WinCVS to checkout the latest ws-axis/c or just type "cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:2401:/home/cvs -P ws-axis/c" from the command line, I get the following error:- "cvs (checkout aborted): Error reading from server localhost: -1: Unknown error". For over a year and up until yesterday, this command has never failed. Now it always failed. Has something changed on minotaur that would cause this problem?
