SVN Server on Windows
Anyone here had any luck installing the SVN server on Windows? I had to put windows xp on my laptop because of driver issues with Linux. I installed an SVN server as a service but I'm not having any luck getting eclipse to connect to it.

Hi Astions
Try this ... http://www.visualsvn.com (just take the VisualSVN Server alone)
This is absolutely free. You can use it for any purpose. I am using it for a while. It is quite easy to maintain under windows.
Good Luck !

I really prefer using an offsite SVN server, it's a little slower, but way more redundant. Dreamhost has SVN in the "goodies" section, and with slicehost you can always just install the package.
If that's not an option, TortoiseSVN (popular, free windows SVN client) can create a datastore on either your local machine or a network share: http://tortoisesvn.net/docs/release/Tor ... itory.html

Well, I've got servers here but I don't run them 24/7 to save energy and I can't put a lot of the code I've got on a remote server, even if it's my own because I can't risk it leaking out into the public.

Hi
You can create users, groups. Then you can give permissions to any path in the repository. For others you can remove the permissions. It is just a very easy and 1 minute step to create a user and deny permissions to all (except your name). Have you tried that with VisualSVN Server ?

It's more of a "I need to be in physical control of the storage device" issue.
