Is there anything in that file that prevents the connection to TCP port 3690? Otherwise, I didn't see anything in the output of your commands that indicate a problem. When I have a problem like this, I often run the failing command under truss(1) or strace to help me determine why a connection fails or a file cannot be opened. That may help, but I'm glad svn+ssh:// is working in the mean time. Cheers, Greg - -- Greg Larkin http://www.FreeBSD.org/ - The Power To Serve http://www.sourcehosting.net/ - Ready. Set.
