This problem was fixed.

But now for past few hours I receive: "Load too high, try again later."

I will ask allbsd.org to add anoncvs for Dragonfly.

As far as I know, cvsup will overwrite my changes. CVS works great
because it merges in my changes or clearly identifies conflicts when
merging.

Also, CVS makes it easy to prepare diffs so I can submit my changes.

I am open to using an alternative to cvs if it will merge in my changes
and make diffs as simple.
