    The sourceforge cvs server has it's "burps" searching the forums on the error you see will show you it's a thing that exists (and will exist) a long time already.

    1.7 Downloading latest version of ShowEQ
    now we need to get the latest version of showeq from cvs. this step
    is pretty easy. Some people remove or copy their ENTIRE source tree
    before re-compiling, but that's not realy necessary, so we leave
    that upto you. I am going to assume we are downloading in /seq
    and that showeq will end up in /seq/showeq.

    Code:

    []# cd /seq
    []# cvs -d:pserver:[email protected]:/cvsroot/seq login
    []# cvs -z3 -d:pserver:[email protected]:/cvsroot/seq co showeq
    []# cd /seq/showeq
    []# cvs update -P
    []# cvs -d :pserver:[email protected]:/cvsroot/seq logout
    this is what it says in the documentation.. and after entering this command:
    cvs -d:pserver:[email protected]:/cvsroot/seq login

    I get this output:
    Logging in to :pserver:[email protected]:2401/cvsroot/seq
    CVS password: <here I press enter>
    cvs [login aborted]: connect to cvs.seq.sourceforge.net(66.35.250.207):2401 failed: Connection refused

    Yes sorry, my previous post was made in to much haste. In the time you were reading the file I pointed to, I changed the response to a more appropriate one, my appologies.

    the crap is still burping for me is there no way around it? DL the newest version somewhere else??

    or could it be that it is blocked by my firewall? but then it wouldnt let me give Password and then say connection rejected or?

    There's an easy way of finding out: Try it with the firewall disabled.

    Read that carefully. The CVS server is cvs.sourceforge.net, not cvs.seq.sourceforge.net.

    cvs.seq.sourceforge.net is correct. see section 2.5 from the FAQ.
    Code:
    # cd /
    # cvs -d:pserver:[email protected]:/cvsroot/seq login
      Logging in to :pserver:[email protected]:2401/cvsroot/seq
      CVS password:
    # cvs -d:pserver:[email protected]:/cvsroot/seq co showeq

    I only read the FAQ when I need help knowing where to look for something. I got cvs.sourceforge.net off of the SEQ CVS link in the "Main Menu" sidebar of this site. So we're both right. =)

    There is, in fact, no other place to obtain it.
    To search, or not to search,--that is the question:--
    Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
    The slings and arrows of outrageous flaming
    Or to take a look at the search function,
    And by using it, end them?
