cannot connect to CVS repository [message #487964]

Hi,
For a BPEL project, I am using Eclipse Ganymede and trying to connect to the CVS repository using following details.

Connection Type : pserver
User :anonymous.
Password : <blank>
Host: dev.eclipse.org
Repository path: /cvsroot/eclipse

I am getting a error message

Error fetching resource list from repository.
Reason:
Could not connect to :pserver:anonymous@dev.eclipse.org:/cvsroot/eclipse:
cannot connect to host: Connection refused: connect.

I would appreciate you help in how do I proceed to get connected to the repository.

The user must not end with a dot. Simply paste this into the 'CVS
Repositories' view:
:pserver:anonymous@dev.eclipse.org:/cvsroot/eclipse

Since the error is 'Connection Refused', I doubt the problem is with the
user name.

You may have a firewall that is preventing access to port 2401 on
dev.eclipse.org. If you can open a command prompt, the following
command will be an indicator:

telnet dev.eclipse.org 2401

If you can connect, typing anything followed by (enter) should yield
this message:

cvs [pserver aborted]: bad auth protocol start

Well, it will definitely not work with a "anonymous." ;-)

Again, if you look closely at his error message, you'll see his username
does not include a "." ;)
