cvsup*.*.freebsd.org and authentications

[Stevan Tiefert]

Hello list,

in the last few months more and more cvsup-servers are printing
error-messages like them:

host# csup ports-supfile
Connected to 212.118.165.142
Authentication required by the server and not supported by client
host# 

Even cvsup has problems with them. What does the error messages exactly
means and how can I connect nevertheless to them?

With regards
Stevan Tiefert
