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.
