Assuming you have a web proxy, you can try rsync with setting the environment variable RSYNC_PROXY to $proxy_ip:$proxy_port (like "export RSYNC_PROXY=192.168.0.1:3128" in bash). > http://svnanon.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/compiling.html#id442180 > > I can't reach http://svnweb.samba.org/. That should probably be websvn instead of svnweb, but this is for inspecting single files and diffs, not for downloading the sources anyway. > Is there another way to get the 3_2 release by svn/http? If you can't get it with rsync through http, I could put a tarball for download somewhere tomorrow.

Well, let's see what improvement the new version brings. BTW: The enhancements were made specifically for environments with hundreds of thousands of users and groups (and large groups!) in ad.
