Error when trying to use svn+ssh....

[Keith and Teri Kwiatek <kw...@gmail.com>]

 When I try:

$ svn list svn+ssh://machine.nist.gov/tmp/repo1a

I get :

svn: Error in child process: exec of 'ssh' failed: A file or directory in
the path name does not exist.

Any ideas what to do?

I built with :
./configure --prefix=/home/scm --enable-shared=no --without-berkeley-db
--enable-ssl=yes --with-libs
=/usr/local/ssl/lib

There are a number of things that need to be configured for svn+ssh  
to work. Have you read this section of the book?

http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/ 
svn.serverconfig.svnserve.html#svn.serverconfig.svnserve.sshauth

svnserve needs to be in the PATH of the user. Note that, when  
connecting this way, different init files are used than the ones  
which get used when you ssh to the machine normally. I'm afraid I  
don't recall exactly which file you need to put the PATH definition  
into.
