Re: cvsup connection problems [was Re: how to update source tree without cvs?]
i m using cvsup -L 2 so it should has verbose output. but unfortunately, it didn't output anything. i also guess that maybe the connection is slow, so i keep waiting for the cvsup connection after the "running" line. after a few minutes of froze, it show something like: Detailer failed: Premature EOF from server Will Retry at 11:04:54 i m using the same CD to install freebsd in my house and my friend's house and i have no problem cvsup-ing at all. That's why at the beginning i guess that there are some firewall setting prevent me from cvsup-ing in my school. Does anyone experience the EOF problems before?

Re: how to update source tree without cvs?
thanks for answering, i will try to learn how to use ctm. But 1 thing really weird is that, when i use cvsup, i can establish connection to the cvsup server. But it doesn't download the src and ports. here is the output of my cvsup Connecting to cvsup10.freebsd.org Connected to cvsup10.freebsd.org Server software version: SNAP_16_1e Negotiating file attribute support Exchanging collection information Establishing multiplexed-mode data connection Running as i can tell i have successfully make a connection to the cvsup server, but the screen just froze after the "running" line, it doesn't show anything after that. i just wonder what have prevent my computer downloading the src and ports. any ideas? thanks for looking and replying. --- Lowell Gilbert <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > yew chin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > > > hell all, i have freebsd 4.7 but due to the > firewall > > configuration in my school, i can't be able to > cvsup. > > if i want to upgrade to 4.8 or update all the > security > > patch? > > what should i need to do? > > is there anyway to update the src and ports > > application without using cvsup? > > thanks for looking and answering. > > The FreeBSD handbook covers doing it with CTM as > well, which should be > accessible via FTP and maybe HTTP.

At least, I *think* > that's how I remember > it. I may not have had enough coffee today... I also think that the security update might be the problem, so i just try different cvsup and i found 1 cvsup server with version 1f. But i still get the same error message after i try cvsup. Connected to cvsup11.freebsd.org Server software version: SNAP_16_1f <-(1f version) __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.

I already try to cvsup for at least 6 different server. But I still have the same problem. Is that maybe i have an out of date cvsup client? __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.
