Following instructions on the CVS page I attempted to install moodle but it appeared to timeout after I hit enter when asked for my password. About two minutes later the following message appeared. Did I do something wrong? How can I fix this situation?


jailshell-3.00$ cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/moodle login
Logging in to :pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:2401/cvsroot/moodle

This sounds like sourceforge up to its tricks again. Sometimes it just doesn't work - busy presumably. Try again later?

Yeap, I just tried again and everything is fine. I"m new to CVS so I wasn't aware that occaisionally sourceforge causes problems...
