Hi.  This is my first time doing this so forgive me if this has problem
has been tackled recently.  I searched the mail list but didn't find
exactly what I'm looking for.

Here's where I'm at.  I'm using Fedora Core 2 on a pc plugged into a
WAP11 that's connected to a Linksys wireless router going to my comcast
cable modem.  I am able to access the repository locally.  But when I
attempt to do so via the net I keep getting connection refused.  I don't
know what I'm doing wrong.  I have my firewall / router accepting /
passing along the correct port.  (I don't *think* that's my problem as I
love bit torrent and I've successfully poked a hole for that to get
through.)

Here's what I've tried:
PERMISSIONS.  I was unable to access the db locally and had to change
file permissions.  Everything is 777 inside of /home/secretsvn (that's
where the db is).  Local access now functioning but I'm concerned about
security.

CONNECTION REFUSED.  When trying to connect via net I get this error:
[eric@playpen110 working]$ svn update
svn://caffeinated.homelinux.net:3690/home/secretsvn/lookHere cpp
svn: 'svn://caffeinated.homelinux.net:3690/home/secretsvn' is not a
working copy.
So what am I writing this command incorrectly?
Okay, let's try this:
$  svn log svn://caffeinated.homelinux.net:3690/home/secretsvn/lookHere
svn: Can't connect to host 'caffeinated.homelinux.net': Connection refused

IS SVNSERVE RUNNING CORRECTLY?  Let's start it again.  Maybe
my entries in xinetd.conf and /ect/services aren't working correctly.
$ svnserve -i
( success ( 1 2 ( ANONYMOUS ) ( edit-pipeline ) ) )
Mmnn...  no mention of svnserve already running, but then again nobody
can connect to it.  Well, I still get the same connection refused error.  :(

Here's what I did in the files:
# [general]
anon-access = none
auth-access = write

### [users]
### USERNAME = PASSWORD
password-db = /home/secretsvn/lookHere/conf/passwd

realm = erics javaland

### this file is called passwd
###[users]
### USERNAME = PASSWORD
friend = testing

So, what silly mistake am I making?  Is there something I forgot?  Do
you need more info?  Would any logs help?  Any ideas / links very welcome.

[secretsvn@playpen110 lookHere]$ svnserve -d

//changed users

[eric@playpen110 cpp]$ svn update cpp
svn://caffeinated.homelinux.net:3690/home/secretsvn/lookHere
svn: 'cpp' is not under version control

Another group member emailed me offline and suggested try this.  So it
seems my xinetd is screwy.  Well at least I have a different error to
play with now!  In this particular case, there is a cpp under version
control because I can access it locally.  ggrr...

Start with the basics.  Try connecting to localhost first, something 
like 'svn ls svn://localhost:3690/home/secretsvn/lookhere'.  At least 
then you know if your inetd is set up correctly.  If it works, then you 
can look at network problems.
