Its been over a few weeks now after installing freebsd
5.0 and still can not run cvsupdate and portupgrade on
one my servers.

We are behind a firewall and proxy server.

All traffic to the internet uses a proxy server for
connection.

I have been searching for ways to try to get the cvs
working from behind the firewall and no one seems to
know how to do it. Or at least I can not find the
solution.

The box has full internet access, but I simply can not
have a ping to outside.
i.e ping www.yahoo.com and or any server on the net
would not work.

but netscape and browsers can get out.

Can any one suggest a solution?

I cann't think that there are so many people out there
asking for this and there is simply no way to do it.

BSD51# cvsup -P m /root/ports-supfile 
Unknown host "cvsup6.FreeBSD.org"

Tried on a windows machine

cvs -d
:pserver;proxy=121.15.222.232;proxyport=8080:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/
login

cvs [login aborted]: Proxy server 121.15.222.232 does
not support HTTP tunnelling

Do I have the defaultrouter in rc.conf?

yes and again I can get to the internet via browsers
fine.
