Re: [Savannah-hackers-public] Re: CVS server clogged up

[Karl Berry]

FWIW, I have had similar problems with CVS servers (including but not
limited to savannah) in the past, even though the server is running
fine.  It was due to network hobgoblins between me and the server.

What ameliorated the situation for me, a little, was to put this in my
~/.ssh/config:
ServerAliveInterval  30
ServerAliveCountMax 100
TCPKeepAlive no

I still get errors from time to time, but less frequently.

FWIW, there were no trouble reports from anyone else.  If CVS had been
completely down for everyone for most of a day, as it was for you, there
would have been.
