One other fun thing to check on after you have modified
/etc/xinetd.d/cvspserver
( http://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/cvs-1.11.7/cvs_2.html#SEC30 ), and
restarted xinetd, and found it is still now working on leprechaun, is to see if
the same
`cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:2401/repo login` works on genesis. If it does
work there have someone familair with linux firewalling look to see if the
kernel is bitbucketing all your packets from off machine, 2401 should be out of
that range...but it might not be. I have had this problem with a recent RH and
another service (RSH), don't you just love admining a machine some one else
setup.
