The issue is that the client end of the transaction is in a DMZ A connection from a DMZ to one’s internal network is a very high security risk. What I was hoping for was a way to define a very specific connection from the Subversion server to the DMZ client (push). This is considered to be a much lower security risk.
Searching for a solution found one possibility: Check out a copy on the subversion server and then rsync to the final client destination. I was hoping to find a one-step solution rather than a two step. Other considerations include using svnsync to create a copy in the DMZ, but that has its own security concerns. Sadly, this is not a simple problem. On Sep 15, 2013, at 6:21 AM, Thorsten Schöning wrote: > Guten Tag Dan White, > am Sonntag, 15.
