Works from here. Are you sure you're not firewalled? I don't understand how you can receive 'connection refused' after it's already asked you for a password - you're already connected by then.

Can you cut and paste exactly what you see?

I tried the Anonymous CVS access, as described, but receives connection refused after entering the password ???

I do not think this is true. I have just tried to do a cvs login to a unix machine at work which does not have a cvs server. It still asks me for a password regardless of whether a cvs server is running or not. It seems that as long as a valid host name is supplied, then a password will be prompted for before trying to communicate with the cvs server.

This would certainly help :)
