Larry I just tried out the anonymous access using the new syntax and found that (of course) it won't work through our firewall. I'd had a hole punched in the firewall to allow pull's etc. but it's tied to port numbers. Do you have any suggestions on how to handle this with the reorganized parents. G++ Larry McVoy wrote:

But I could use
bk://ppc@ppc.bkbits.net/linux_2_2 instead of
bk://ppc@ppc.bkserver.net/linux_2_2
It's a whole 2 letters shorter. If I can ever get bk.net/bk.com that's
the obvious thing but the chances of that are right up there with me
winning the lottery. If anyone stumbles across a really short, approrpiate
domain, let me know. The nicest thing sourceforge ever did for me is
to get sf.net :-)
Anyway, all of the above addresses currently point at the same place.
If you all say "bkbits" then I'll reserve bkbits.net for the hosting
service. I'm a big fan of less is more and that's the shortest I could
find.** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
