Commit fails on OSX accessing windows repository

[Jon Frost <jo...@nestafuturelab.org>]

Hi there,

I have installed subversion 1.2.1 on a windows server and created a
repository.  The repository can be accessed from other windows machines
using the TortoiseSVN client and checkin/checkout and commit works fine.
To throw a spanner in the works I also need to be able to access the
repository from macs running OSX 10.3 or higher.

I installed the Metissian 1.2 package and tried both scplugin and svnX
on the mac.  Accessing the repository for a checkout and update works
fine, passwords are requested and accepted, but any commit fails with
the error:

"svn: Can't get password"

This happens on both scplugin and svnX so I'm assuming it's at the svn
client level.  I have searched a lot of sources for info but I guess no
one else was foolish enough to try the same combination ;)

Any chance anyone can shed some light on this?

Regards,
Jon
