Re: CVS Hang?

[Derek R. Price]

Please direct future queries of this nature to one of the mailing lists
as you are much more likely to receive a prompt and accurate response.

Anyway, I've seen that kind of thing due to a misconfigured inetd - e.g.
inetd is picking up the connection but the server it is running is
misconfigured and hangs.

Also, a firewall in between you and your server could cause a connection
to hang even though the server never actually sees it.
