cvs read behind firewall?


I have a machine that I'd like to build gcc on from the cvs repository.

The machine is behind a firewall but I can ssh myself out using
non-privelaged
ports, i.e., ssh -P. Now, how do I do this with cvs?

This example that I thought could work was performed with a bash shell.

administrator@BOTTEN /usr/local/src
$ export CVS_RSH=ssh

administrator@BOTTEN /usr/local/src
$ alias ssh='ssh -P'

administrator@BOTTEN /usr/local/src
$ cvs -d :ext:anoncvs@gcc.gnu.org:/cvs/gcc checkout gcc
Secure connection to gcc.gnu.org refused.
cvs [checkout aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if
any)

administrator@BOTTEN /usr/local/src

Any help with getting cvs access through my firewall is greatly appreciated.

TIA,

/ChJ
