The advice in the committer's guide is for committers, who have accounts set up on the server. TMK you don't, so the svn+ssh:// URL won't work for you. You need to do an anonymous checkout using the svn:// URL. Also, you missed the /base/ bit that is mentioned in the committer's guide. (not to mention, you actually asked for a clue-bat) :) All that said, we definitely need better documentation on how users can use our svn stuff; not to mention that we should have had that, and svn mirrors set up *before* we made the switch, but that's just me. Good luck, Doug -- Change is hard.
