Subverison repository logon failure

[Ethan Oldale <et...@hotmail.co.nz>]

Hi,

I have three machines connected on a local network, one of which has debian and subverion/ssh/apache2/websvn installed,
and the other two have windows and tortoise svn installed. One of the clients works fine, however after a few successfull logons, the other computer
cannot logon, reporting a bad username or password, even though they have not been changed.
I tried removing tortoise svn, and all of its appdata and entries in the registry, and installing it again, but it says the same thing, without even
asking for a password (even after clearing authentication data). This is very frustrating, I even intalled silk-subversion, but it produces the same logon failure messages.
After searching for solutions, I found where subversion stores its saved passwords (C:/Users/<user>/AppData/Roaming/Subversion/auth/svn.simple etc)
but they were empty.

Any help on how to get tortoise svn or silk-subversion to ask for a password, or reset its stored password
would be much appreciated

Ethan

I don't think that the problem is with your SVN clients, they work on
thousands of computers the same way. Give some more detail about how
exactly your clients access the repositories, for example do you use
svnserve, svn+ssh or http? You wrote that everything is installed on
your server, but not what exactly is used by the clients. You should
provide the configuration for your used access method, too.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen,
