kkeil@kalman:~> cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs () lox sandelman ca:/tcpdump/master login
Logging in to :pserver:anoncvs () lox sandelman ca:2401/tcpdump/master
CVS password:
cvs [login aborted]: connect to lox.sandelman.ca(205.150.200.178):2401 failed: No route to host


Please add 195.135.221.2  (charybdis-ext.suse.de) to allowed hosts.
Thank you.
