Can't login for cvs

I’m trying to login for anonymous cvs.

(prompt)> cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.ruby-lang.org:/src login
Logging in to :pserver:anonymous@cvs.ruby-lang.org:2401/src
CVS password: ( I type anonymous )
cvs [login aborted]: connect to cvs.ruby-lang.org(210.251.121.214):2401 failed:
Connection refused
(prompt)> telnet 210.251.121.214 2401
Trying 210.251.121.214…
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
(prompt)>

All connections refused.
I’ve tried with:
export CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@cvs.ruby-lang.org:/src
but this doesn’t help.

Could it be a firewall on my side? We have one that’s fairly strict.

Our sysadmin has traced it and says it’s our firewall.
