CVS still broken

Is this like a secret club where only members can contribute or view the
actual code talked about? How come no one else has any trouble getting hold
of the source or latest CVS, how come everyone else can check in code and
presumably check out latest with no trouble? IT IS BROKEN!!!!!!!!!

This is the page that says what to do to download.

                  The CVS repository is maintained at SourceForge.net (project name "FreeBIOS"). You can download the daily snapshot of
                  the entire source tree or use CVS directly: 

                  % cvs
                  -d:pserver:anonymous at cvs.freebios.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/freebios login 

                  Hit return when it asks you for a password. Then checkout (or update) the freebios source tree: 

                  % cvs -z3
                  -d:pserver:anonymous at cvs.freebios.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/freebios co freebios


When you actually try to do the first cvs login, this happens:
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous at cvs.freebios.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/freebios login
Logging in to :pserver:anonymous at cvs.freebios.sourceforge.net:2401/cvsroot/freebios
CVS password: 
cvs [login aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if any)


The daily snapshot link is broken:

What am I missing?
