[ECOS] access cvs server problem,

[H Girard]

Hi all

I have a similar problem as what was reported yesterday: cannot access cvs .
Access was working early feb. (last week) . Nothing was changed to the local
firewall.

with the cvs client from cygwin setup (1.11):
$ cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@sources.redhat.com:/cvs/ecos login
Logging in to :pserver:anoncvs@sources.redhat.com:2401/cvs/ecos
CVS password:
cvs login: failed to open //.cvspass for reading: No such file or directory
cvs [login aborted]: fatal error: exiting

sources.redhat.com can be pinged , a telnet to port 80 with the string
returns a response from an apache server (no "via" line)
reinstalling cvs client did not make any difference

thank for any help

Henri Girard
