Re: CVS Download: Timeout Error
Thanks for the reply, Yeah I thought it was something to do with the ports but I'm honestly not great with networking at the best of times, let alone on an OS that's new to me. Sure, I'm sorry I misspoke a few times there- I meant the source code and I used the disable PF command which I thought might have been interfering with it but it didn't work anyway. Thank you for the help, I changed my network to my phone tethering and it worked perfectly- I didn't realise that a lot of businesses block port 22 :P Cheers dude, you're a lifesaver x) -- Sent from: http://openbsd-archive.7691.n7.nabble.com/openbsd-user-misc-f3.html

Lots of businesses block port 22 outbound, which you need. Nick.
CVS Download: Timeout Error
Hi OpenBSD forum, I'm new to OpenBSD and I'm running into an issue downloading the CVS libraries and I cannot figure out the problem. I've downloaded the libs before but the vm I was using got corrupted, and after following the same steps as before I keep getting this error: host$ cvs -qd anon...@anoncvs.fr.openbsd.org:/cvs checkout -rOPENBSD_6_3 -P src ssh: connect to host anoncvs.fr.openbsd.org port 22: Operation timed out cvs [checkout aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if any) I've gone through all the steps on this tutorial (https://www.openbsd.org/anoncvs.html) and tried multiple mirrors but to no avail. I've disabled the firewall in case that was the issue but it fixed nothing. I'm able to use the ping command, however traceroute doesn't seem to work. I can provide more info if needed. Does anyone know how I can fix this? Cheers. -- Sent from: http://openbsd-archive.7691.n7.nabble.com/openbsd-user-misc-f3.html
