Comment:

 Usually this happens when your network blocks rsync traffic. Ask your
 network administrator. Sometimes, antivirus or security software can block
 rsync connections; if you use any such software, try disabling it. If you
 cannot make rsync traffic work on your network, there are alternatives,
 documented in our wiki, for updating the ports collection using a tarball
 via http, or using svn.
