CVS Access: Connection reset by peer

CVS Access: Connection reset by peer

[John David Anglin]

Most of the time for the last day or so I can't access your CVS site:

# cvs diff -u3p varasm.c
cvs [diff aborted]: recv() from server gcc.gnu.org: Connection reset by peer

This problem doesn't seem specific to my end.

This very command and updates in general have been working fine for me 
(128.131.111.0/24 at Vienna University of Technology; 195.135.220.0/22
at SUSE Nuremberg), and gcc.gnu.org seems quite idle.

Might there be some issue with your account?  Are you able to access CVS 
using the anonymous account? Have you set CVS_RSH to ssh?

The problem seems to be with anonymous access:

dave@selway:~/gnu/gcc-4.0/gcc> cat CVS/Root
:pserver:anoncvs@gcc.gnu.org:/cvs/gcc

Access using my account seems to be working.  However, I only have
ssh access from hiauly1.hia.nrc.ca.  I have been using anonymous
access from various other systems.  This has been working for a long
time without any changes on my end.  I had one successful update
this morning but every other attempt has failed using anonymous
access.

There also seems to be a problem with sources.redhat.com.

Just another data point: I have similar setup(s) and see similar
problems, introduced recently.  Before, sometimes cvs updates
failed, giving RST apparently due to high-load-restrictions.
Now, failures happen more often than not, and sometimes there is
a (half?)hour-long delay before an update starts generating
traffic besides the initial SYN/ACK (perhaps plus a few packets;
I didn't look close).  I'm considering switching to a mirror for
anoncvs access, though I presume anoncvs access to the actual
tree is be ok for maintainer's autotester purposes (less
confusing LAST_UPDATED stamps).

(Access with the SSH-account works as usual.)

I haven't seen this happen in the last 12h, so the issue
whatever it was, seems resolved, at least from here.
