Hi Graham, I followed each and every step faithfully as given in Developer's guide , but still I am not able to get the source and I get the same error. I download source from http://www.wireshark.org/download/src/wireshark-0.99.5.tar.gz separately(without SVN), untarred it through cygwin, and then tried to put the source into SVN( by specifying the untarred file directory in the checkout file option ). I got the error "Error: Unable to open an ra_local session to URL " I hv even mailed to the dev guide of Tortoise but no reply from them....
Ur advice is very essential ....
