Hi All,

I have configured SVN server in a debian box. When I try to checkout from a windows machine through tortoiseSVN using my server's public IP address, repositories are simply checking out without prompting for username and password.

But, When I try to checkout using LAN IP in my internal network, I am getting the authentication prompt. I am using svn://<IP Address/repos/ link to checkout.

Someone please advice me where I am wrong and what I have to do to fix this.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Deepan.R

Is it possible you have two svnserve demons running listening on separate IPs?

You are using the svn://protocol in both cases?

Hi Bob,

Thanks for your reply. I was using http for Internal checkout and SVN protocol for external checkout.

However, Now I have fixed the issue. Sorry, I didn't uncomment the password-db in svnserve.conf.

I was working for a long time and I was in half sleep. Due to that made a mistake and now I have fixed it.

Cheers,
Deepan.R
