Hi,
I installed a cvs repository in my local SL machine and trying to

from fermi machines. I get the following error:

This is a routing/firewall problem. the cvs command asks for the
password before trying to connect.

It's most probably tcpwrappers
No. That allows a connexion, then rejects it. You don't get "no route"
or "refused messages."
AFAIK tcpwrappers refuse too.
but I somehow missed the no route to.. :)
and you're right! it needs some investigation:
1. ping to the host
2. traceroute to the host.
if you sporadically get the no route problem, it means you have ... a routing
problem :)
after you finished up with it, you can continue and trouble shoot.
routing problem can be cause by your university/enterprise firewall too.
you can also investigate with tcpdump, which is a great sniffer.
Good luck!
"reset" is more probable.
