Daniel, Martin,
Thanks for the responses.
Fortunately, I have been able to figure out how to get rsync to work
from behind my proxy server, so this works for me.

When I do a 'fink selfupdate', I get some unexpected warnings.
Some of the packages update, but some do not. I have confirmed
with a package maintainer that I am not seeing the latest version
of a package I am interested in upgrading. Here is what I am seeing:
$ fink selfupdate

I will now run the cvs command to retrieve the latest package
descriptions. The 'su' command will be used to run the
cvs command as the user 'wfspotz'. After that, the core packages
will be updated right away; you should then update the
other packages using commands like 'fink update-all'.
/usr/bin/su wfspotz -c 'cvs -z3 update -d -P -l'
cvs update: -m wrapper option is not supported remotely; ignored
cvs update: -m wrapper option is not supported remotely; ignored
There are two things at work here, both courtesy SourceForge:
These warnings are the symptom of some recently introduced
braindamage, but AFAIK they are harmless.
The fact that packages are not updated to their latest versions is
the symptom that SourceForge's anonymous cvs service is currently
broken.
You might want to complain to SF about this.
And use selfupdate-rsync.
