Details:

Hello,

Since I have changed my PC from MSW XP to MSW 7, I can no longer use CVS to
access distant repo. However CVS works fine for repo with protocol :local:

I get the following message:

$ cvs -z3 -d:pserver:vincentb1@jpicedt.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/jpicedt co
-P jpicedt
cvs.exe [checkout aborted]: connect to
jpicedt.cvs.sourceforge.net(216.34.181.112):2401 failed: Connection timed out


I got this same error message above both with CVS version 1.11.22 & 1.12.13a

The cvs I just used to get this error message is that version:


$ cvs --version

Concurrent Versions System (CVS) 1.12.13a (client)

Specify the --help option for further information about CVS


Environment is as follows:


$ env | grep 'CVS\|SVN'
CVSROOT=:local:c:\Users\Vincent\Documents\cvsroot
SVN_SSH=C:/PROGRA~2/PuTTY/plink.exe
CVS_SSH=C:\PROGRA~2\PuTTY\plink.exe
CVS_RSH=C:\PROGRA~2\PuTTY\plink.exe


Please note that:
* SVN is working fine for distant repo using SSH (so PuTTY is not to blame,
AFAI can understand.
* using forward slashes instead of backward slashes does not help
* using the long name "Program Files (x86)" instead of PROGRA~2 does not help
either.
