When I try to do a "fink selfupdate-cvs"  I get the following transcript

===========================
[....]
rm -rf /sw/fink.tmp
mkdir -p /sw/fink.tmp
chown jeff /sw/fink.tmp
Checking to see if we can use hard links to merge the existing tree. Please
ignore errors on the next few lines.
ln /sw/fink/README /sw/fink.tmp/README
Now logging into the CVS server. When CVS asks you for a password, just press
return (i.e. the password is empty).
su jeff -c 'cvs -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/fink login'
(Logging in to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
CVS password:
cvs [login aborted]: connect to cvs.sourceforge.net:2401 failed: 
Connection refused
### su failed, exit code 1
Failed: Logging into the CVS server for anonymous read-only access failed.
===========================

I suspect the problem is our corporate firewall which bans TCP/IP 
access on nonstandard ports.  So I think I can't connect to 
cvs.sourceforge.net:2401 because of the 2401 port.

Am I just screwed?  How do I update myself?  Can I re-install fink?
