[dev] Anonymous CVS down?

[Jörn Mankiewicz]

Strange. This is all I get when I try to connect according to the description 
on horde.org: 

<code>
export CVSROOT=:pserver:cvsread at anoncvs.horde.org:/repository
cvs login                                                                                                                                                                                                                     
Logging in to :pserver:cvsread at anoncvs.horde.org:2401/repository
CVS password: 
cvs [login aborted]: connect to anoncvs.horde.org(200.46.204.201):2401 failed: 
Connection timed out
</code>

I also tried telnet to the port and a ping to verify that it's nothing with my 
CVS setup:

<code>
telnet 200.46.204.201 2401
Trying 200.46.204.201...
telnet: connect to address 200.46.204.201: Connection timed out
</code>

<code>
PING nadia.horde.org (200.46.204.201) 56(84) bytes of data.
^C
--- nadia.horde.org ping statistics ---
50 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 48999ms
</code>

When I try to connect to cvs.horde.org I get an authentication-failure as 
expected and ping/telnet to 2401 indicates I can reach the server and 
appropiate port. I even tried access from my company's net and got the exact 
same results.

So I would conclude that either the DNS entry presented to me by my provider 
points to the wrong server, the acces-information for anonymous CVS presented 
on horde.org is wrong or there's something fishy going on with 
anoncvs.horde.org and it's CVS/Firewall setup.

Sorry for bugging you over old, disused code but has anybody an idea whats 
wrong here?

Thanks
