That's the step that's failing. On further checking, I find that I have to set the client's destination port in ~/.subversion/servers, presumably for both me and root. Apparently svn doesn't use the transport protocol reserved for it in /etc/services, nor does the Gentoo version create an /etc/subversion directory for global settings. Intuitive? I think not. Thanks for the help. -- Rgds Peter. Linux Counter 5290, Aug 93 -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
