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?

Well, it's not a firewall problem; the connection is getting through the firewall just fine. Check to see if cvsup is exchanging any data; maybe the transfer is just slow. Also, you could try increasing the verbosity of cvsup to see if *it* knows anything that's going wrong. __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

The FreeBSD handbook covers doing it with CTM as well, which should be accessible via FTP and maybe HTTP. Specific file versions can be obtained in a number of ways, according to the FreeBSD web site, and it's possible that you might be able to use cvs through your firewall, even if you can't use cvsup. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
