How do I access cvs.dev.java.net through a SOCKS proxy server?
A. You can get general information on SOCKS for CVS at https://www.cvshome.org/docs/infonetsecurity.html. Particularly on Windows, there are SOCKS implementations like one from Hummingbird (http://www.hummingbird.com/products/nc/socks/install.html) and Sockscap (http://www.socks.permeo.com/Download/SocksCapDownload/index.asp).
