CVS is back up. Check if you can use selfupdate-cvs now.
cvs-proxy doesn't work anymore, according to reports. The current
version of cvs (1.12.13) has HTTP proxy support built in, however. If
you can't update through your firewall just using cvs, there are a
couple of patches that should implement the built-in proxy support in
Fink. Download CVS.pm from
http://fink.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/fink/experimental/alexkhansen/3rdparty/fink/perlmod/Fink/SelfUpdate/CVS.pm?revision=1.1
and replace /sw/lib/perl5/Fink/SelfUpdate/CVS.pm with the new file.
Then you will also need to edit /sw/lib/fink/mirror/postinstall.pl and
change the line that has
if (/^(:\w+:\w+)@(.+)$/) {
to use
if (/^(:\S+:\S+)@(.+)$/) {
instead.

Thanks! Just done that as you advised. But now the following error!
--------
$ fink selfupdate-cvs
....
....
Checking to see if we can use hard links to merge the existing tree. Please
ignore errors
on the next few lines.
Now logging into the CVS server. When CVS asks you for a password, just press
return
(i.e. the password is empty).
/usr/bin/su mpb -c 'cvs
-d":pserver;proxy=10.10.127.3;proxyport=3128:[email protected]:/cvsroot/fink"
login'
Logging in to :pserver:[email protected]:2401/cvsroot/fink
CVS password:
cvs [login aborted]: proxy server 10.10.127.3:3128 does not support http
tunnelling
### execution of /usr/bin/su failed, exit code 1
Failed: Logging into the CVS server for anonymous read-only access failed.
--------
HHTP tunneling error! What to do now? Regards,
