CVS works normally through the proxy. SVN demands a number of http services which the proxy does not provide (extension_methods REPORT MERGE MKACTIVITY CHECKOUT, etc). I gave the subversion page describing the required services (http://subversion.tigris.org/faq.html#proxy) to the ISP, but they have been uncooperative. Desproxy used to be sufficient to get around the proxy, but it stopped working a few months ago. I've tried proxychains, same story. I saw a Nov 2005 forum item from "Funky Beast" complaining of the same thing, and there must be others in the same predicament. Using https would provide a clean fix for all fpc users behind proxies, and would eliminate the need for each one to plead, cajole and fight with his ISP.
