 I am not able to update the macport. When i try to install new package
 then it say my port is outdated and suggest me to update. When i try to
 update it throw the error. Earlier it was working fine, and i was able to
 update port by sudo port -v selfupdate.

 it seems like internet connection problem but internet is working fine. I
 tried this from my office where i am within VPN and at my home where there
 is no VPN and not behind any proxy server but it give me same error. I
 recently update mountain lion to 10.8.4 and updated latest java, I also
 update the xcode.

 I posted this problem at stackoverflow.com and superuser.com but didn't
 get any answer. Someone suggested me to try


 {{{
 telnet rsync.macports.org 873
 }}}


 to check whether i am able to connect with macport server or not but this
 was operation timeout.
 I really need to resolve this otherwise i have no choice to switch to
 Homebrew.
