hi dave,
i'm wondering why this project has chosen the svnserve'd svn:// schema for the repo rather than web-dav + http://.
A number of reasons, but mainly because the Subversion manual's own comparison points out that it's much simpler to setup and faster to use. The only feature we might have used that we've lost out on this way is per-directory access control, but that's no great loss IMNSHO.
and the ability for those behind firewalls to only worry about communicatig with a "more standard" port 80 ...
There's no need. Plain old svn has now been tested on various machines and works OK.
agreed.
Yours is the only failure I've heard of :-(
i'm cursed =(
OK, just tried a telnet to the svn port (3690) from my machine here (at home), which is unknown to any of the firewalls where the dev box is - I get a response like:
( success ( 1 2 ( ANONYMOUS ) ( edit-pipeline ) ) )
What do you get?
from behind my firewall, on my LAN ...
% telnet svr2.postgresql.org 25 Trying 65.19.161.25... Connected to svr2.postgresql.org. Escape character is '^]'.
but
% telnet svr2.postgresql.org 3690 Trying 65.19.161.25... telnet: connect to address 65.19.161.25: Operation timed out telnet: Unable to connect to remote host
with nothing in my firewall logs ...
from OUTSIDE my firewall, @ my ISP-based shell acct:
% telnet svr2.postgresql.org 3690 Trying 65.19.161.25... telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
BUT, to 'another' server ...
% telnet svn.adiumx.com 3690 Trying 216.133.69.35... Connected to penguinmilitia.net. Escape character is '^]'. ( success ( 1 2 ( ANONYMOUS ) ( edit-pipeline ) ) ) ^]
i'm not convinced its NOT your server ... then again, i'm not convinced it's not me too =-S
a SWAG -- i just wonder if there's a version incompatibiolity between our "subversion versions". i'm using 1.2rc2 -- you?
argh!
cheers,
richard
