emerge rsync fails in stage 1 instal

[Colin]

Hi,

I'm trying out Gentoo and I'm trying to do a stage 1 (ix86) install. I have downloaded the iso image and blown a stage 1 CD. I made the partitions - hda2 (boot), hda3 (swap) and hda4 (root), as I already had win95 on hda1 - initalized the filesystems and mounted them. I tried dhcpcd, but NMS didn't seem to be working so I tried again with static configuration. Either way, after the chroot, when I tried to run "emerge rsync" I got:

rsync: failed to connect to cvs.gentoo.org. Connection refused.
rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at clientserver.c (89)

I am behind a linksys router/personal firewall. I tried putting the DMZ to the static IP of the target system, tried again, no joy.

Any ideas????

Thanks, Colin

NOW I see the sticky. Sorry, will try that first.
