windows/svn problem with svn+ssh

C:\>svn co -N svn+ssh://user@site.com/path/to/repo
svn: The system cannot find the file specified.

This connection string works from unix, or in TortoiseCVS, but not
command-line. Ideas?

Please respond to this email address.

Do you have an ssh.exe program on windows?  Which one is TortoiseSVN 
launching?  Whatever it is, it looks like it's not in the %PATH% for 
your commandline client.

On my NT setup,

c:\Winnt\Profiles\username\Application Data\Subversion\config

defaults to

ssh = $SVN_SSH ssh

You can configure that line for your c:/path/to/plink or c:/path/to/ssh 
(though, of course, this isn't 'automatic').

Automatically, if the client boxes boot to a server, set environment 
variable SVN_SSH from the bootup script.

svn co -N svn+ssh://user@192.168.0.3/path/to/test1

works fine for me from within cygwin OR from a DOS shell C:\ prompt
client on NT 4 w/SP6a 
$ svn --version
svn 1.0.1 (dev build)


svnserve (subversion 1.0.1 r9023) on Linux SuSE r9.0
