SVN for Windows not connecting over network
I am trying to get Subversion 0.33 up and running and have hit a snag
when trying to connect to the server across my LAN. I've installed/run
the server on a Linux box using the 'svnserve -d' command. I've
confirmed that I can checkout the repository from that machine using
either file:// or svn://192.168.1.15 without problem. I'm unable to do
the same from my Windows box, however, and immediately get the error:
"svn: No connection could be made because the target machine actively
refused it". I've checked the Linux side and found that the daemon is
running and listening on port 3690, but a packet capture on the Windows
side shows NO traffic when I try to execute 'svn checkout
svn://192.168.1.15/.....'. I do see some traffic back and forth with
svn+ssh://, but my SSH isn't really set up properly so I didn't expect
that to work. There is no general connectivity problem, as I use Exceed
for everything and run CVS from Windows->Linux without problem. I've
disable my Windows firewall but that doesn't seem to help.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Jim

It's likely that your packet capture strategy is flawed, then;
"actively refused" would require traffic, wouldn't it?

Sounds like there's a firewall on the Linux box. Using
svn://192.168.1.15 from the Linux box won't mean that it'll work from
another machine. You need to configure the Linux box's firewall to
accept traffic on TCP port 3690.
Cheers,
Mike.
