this is an server failure error code returned from adns. for some reason 
it doesn't like your DNS setup.

this is actually a bit of a sticky point. I put in adns in order to 
avoid depending on glibc name config functions, which are not statically 
linkable. unfortunately it means that a name lookup which works for 
something like ping might -- depending on your name service config -- 
not work on monotone's fetch function. probably I ought to stop being 
cute and just accept what glibc has to offer, and remove adns. *sigh*.

meantime, the you can probably use netsync since it doesn't use adns. 
try this:

monotone pull --key="" off.net net.venge.monotone

that should anonymously pull the recent development head(s) using the 
new netsync protocol. I am seriously considering making it the only 
protocol in the near future, as the others seem to be more trouble than 
they are worth.
