But I am still trying to figure out a way to use savannah. I have installed cygwin, and the proxytunnel tool. $ cat ~/.ssh/config Host subversions.gnu.org Protocol 1 ProxyCommand /usr/local/bin/proxytunnel.exe -g 172.16.0.52 -G 80 -d subversions.gnu.org -D 443 $ export CVS_RSH=ssh $ cvs -z3 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:443/cvsroot/ferment co ferment cvs checkout: CVSROOT port specification is only valid for gserver, kserver, cvs checkout: and pserver connection methods. cvs [checkout aborted]: Bad CVSROOT: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:443/cvsroot/ ferment'. $ cvs -z3 -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:443/cvsroot/ferment co ferm ent cvs [checkout aborted]: connect to subversions.gnu.org(199.232.41.2):443 failed: Connection timed out $ exit I am more hopeful now! From this point forward, how should I go about it. I am not sure why :pserver: times out. And I don't know who says that CVSROOT port specification is only valid for gserver, kserver, and pserver connection methods. Any help?
