* Sometimes CVS server of Sourceforge have problems preventing anonymous access. In this cases
access can be occured truth non-default ports 80 and 443 of cvs-pserver.sourceforge.net

How can I access CVS services from behind a firewall?  |  doc feedback |
support

    Access to the project CVS servers is provided via SSH (for developers)
and the CVS pserver protocols (for non-developers). SSH uses TCP port 22;
CVS pserver uses TCP port 2401. Many firewalls block outbound traffic on
these ports, thus preventing SourceForge.net developers and users from
accessing the project CVS servers. To work around this limitation, we now
offer the ability to connect to the project CVS servers using alternate
ports (using different hostnames).

    To access the project CVS server using SSH from behind a firewall, you
may connect to port 443 or port 80 of cvs-ssh.sourceforge.net. Traffic to
port 443 and to port 80 of cvs-ssh.sourceforge.net is redirected to
cvs.sourceforge.net. The SSH host fingerprint for cvs-ssh.sourceforge.net
will match that of cvs.sourceforge.net.

    To access the project CVS server using anonymous pserver-based access
from behind a firewall, you may connect to port 443 or port 80 of
cvs-pserver.sourceforge.net. Traffic to port 443 and to port 80 of
cvs-pserver.sourceforge.net is redirected to cvs.sourceforge.net.

    The syntax for specifying an alternate port for pserver-based CVS is as
follows. GUI-based CVS clients typically offer a configuration setting for
this purpose.

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs-pserver.sourceforge.net:PORT/cvsroot/PROJECT
...

# Thus:
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs-pserver.sourceforge.net:443/cvsroot/PROJECTNAME
...
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs-pserver.sourceforge.net:80/cvsroot/PROJECTNAME
...
