[openbeos] Problem with anonymous CVS checkout

(Sorry for potential double posting, I sent it from the wrong email account 
first)

Hi,

I regularly check out the latest changes of the OBOS CVS repository. But 
since about two weeks (maybe a bit longer) ago it does not work anymore.

My checkout script is based on an article in an PBOS newsletter:

#!/bin/sh 
# check out the entire CVS repository for OpenBeOS 
export CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/cvsroot/open-beos 
cvs login 
cd ~/obos_repos
cvs co . 
cvs logout 


This is the error message I get:

(Logging in to anonymous@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx)
CVS password:

cvs [login aborted]: connect to cvs.open-beos.sf.net:2401 failed: Operation 
timed out

If I press ALT-C after that, I get the following output:

cvscvscvscvscvscvscvs       
[[[[[[[checkoutcheckoutcheckoutcheckoutcheckoutcheckoutcheckout aborted] 
aborted] aborted] aborted] aborted] aborted] aborted]: : : : : : : received 
received received received received received received 
interruptinterruptinterruptinterruptinterruptinterruptinterrupt signal 
signal signal signal signal signal signal


(Logging out of anonymous@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx)
Entry not found for 
:pserver:anonymous@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/cvsroot/open-beos



What is the reason for this behaviour? Are these problems already known?

Thanks in advance
Finn
