I've been away for a while, so forgive me if I've forgotten something obvious.
I'm trying to set up CVS access in eclipse in order to commit some work, but can't get a connection; I contantly get connection refused, whether I use eclipse, CLI CVS or even try to telnet in on port 2401. I've tried running nmap on cvs.moodle.org and only managed to find ports 80 and 443 open. Has the cvs server gone down?
Thanks,
Mike
Hi, cvs.moodle.org is just for developers with CVS write access.
Use one of the mirrors for anonymous access:

P.S. it's generally considered bad etiquette to run nmap on servers that you don't own ;)

Hi, I am a developer with write access; I want to commit some work to directories that I have write access to (all in contrib, mainly code I wrote to begin with).
Sorry about the nmap- I was rather confused when telnetting in on the relevant ports got me nowhere and wanted to be sure that it wasn't just on a different port.

Oh, sorry Mike! 
In that case it must be something local or temporary. CVS is working fine for us and there were no known problems recently.
And you're definitely using ssh, right?

Mike,
I can't see any login attempts from your username, please make sure you are using cvs over ssh (not tcp port 2401) - Instructions can be found in the url Martin provided

Thanks for the help, it is looking like it is a firewall issue at my end- I had originally discounted this as it was fine before I had some time off work, however it seems those pesky computer pixies must have been deleting firewall rules.
I've sent an email to our IT department so will hopefully have conformation soon.
Thanks,
