You probably have a Port setting in the global section of .ssh/config or /etc/ssh/ssh_config Either add sections for the hosts which need this nonstandard port and move the "Port 2224" there - various wildcards can be used, see ssh_config(5) - or provide an override for anoncvs.ca.openbsd.org e.g. Host anoncvs.ca.openbsd.org Port 22
