Well, yes. There is a firewall between here and the server but that
port is open because I can perform the exact same CVS command from
the machine right beside me. I have compared network settings on the
two machines and there is nothing unusual there that I can find.
I think you are correct that this is a network error but I'm not sure
where else to look. Nothing else seems to be having any problems
except CVS. I can telnet, ftp, browse, etc. the server where CVS is
running.
Oh, I just discovered another clue: I downloaded the MacCVS client
and it was able to connect and checkout files (of course, it locked
every one of them and I had a devil of a time getting that directly
deleted). So, it is just the command-line version that is having a
problem.
