cvs [update aborted]: reading from server: Protocol error

cvs [update aborted]: reading from server: Protocol error

[Andrej Borsenkow]

I'm using SOCKS5 patched CVS 1.10.8. I can do login and I see with
tcpdump that it really tries to contact at least SOCKS server in
update - with the above message.

Have a nice DOS!

Hmm ... is it the valid CVS response (after tcpdump -x)?

Yes, this is valid response (just look through cvs source :-) The problem
is SOCKS - I once compiled cvs with SOCKS5 and lost modifications. Now I
tried to do it once more - without success; I tried it both with 1.10 and
1.10.8 with basically the same results. Obviously, something more is
needed than just including socks.h and compiling with -DSOCKS.

When I'm back, I probably try to make real patch for CVS+SOCKS stuff
... currently, I just restored old copy that works.
