Sam,

Thanks. Good call, I had forgotten about that method. I got the proxy but
,alas, I think its my laptop firewall config that is killing it here and I
cant change that (well I probably good after lots of digging but then they
could just push out a a new config). Security is pretty tight here.

So my big issue with the subversive client is that I cant get the SVN
connectors installed.  I can get the main package installed but when I
download the connectors package it keeps giving me some sort of error to the
effect that it cant find the archive in the directory that I'm pointing
too.  Even when the exact same series of steps works correctly for the main
package.

sorry for the OT thread,
brad
