Yes, in fact I wrote about it in the original post. I repeat: If I disable the digest-md5 mech on the server, like (mech_list: gssapi anonymous), I get: $ svn co svn://big/configs svn: E210007: Unable to connect to a repository at URL 'svn://big/configs' svn: E210007: Cannot negotiate authentication mechanism I even googled for the "Cannot negotiate authentication mechanism" message but have only come up with some Windows specific problems like TortoiseSVN being unable to find a dll. -- Victor Sudakov, VAS4-RIPE, VAS47-RIPN sip:suda...@sibptus.tomsk.ru
