fair nuf ...

from INSIDE my LAN/firewall:

    % telnet svn.pgadmin.org 3690
        Trying 194.217.48.45...
        telnet: connect to address 194.217.48.45: Operation timed out
        telnet: Unable to connect to remote host

from OUTSIDE my LAN (@ my ISP):

    % telnet svn.pgadmin.org 3690
        Trying 194.217.48.45...
        Connected to raptor.vale-housing.co.uk.
        Escape character is '^]'.
        ( success ( 1 2 ( ANONYMOUS ) ( edit-pipeline ) ) ) ^]

ok, so the machine's alive ...
