Ditto here. I am using ssh non commercial version with tortoise on Vista, and I don't recall any problems setting it up. R-forge works perfectly fine with windows and tortoise in my experience.

Is your putty/ssh working? Can you access other machines with it? I do recall ssh can be a bit fussy.

I ultimately decided to host all my packages on googlecode.
googlecode is extremely easy to use from Windows and does not require
any public/private key, pageant, etc.  e.g.
http://sqldf.googlecode.com.  If you already have TortoiseSVN and know
how to use it then you can probably set up a googlecode site in
literally 5 minutes.

One other possibility.  I think there is a way to host your project on
googlecode but still have it mirrored on R-forge so from your users'
viewpoint its the same as if it were on R-Forge but you can use the
simpler googlecode site.  In that case you might not need to set up
commits on R-Forge since you would do all your commits through
googlecode (depending on how it works) but I have not seen good
documentation on how to do this.
