Do you use a proxy or something like that? It could be that your browser
is configured to use a proxy, and the SVN client has not been configured.
That would explain why you get a cannot find host error.

In general, you would just need port 8080 available, however, SVN uses DAV
so you need to have all of the http DAV methods available. This would
only apply to a proxy. A lot of people have problems where proxies only
allow GET and POST. This lets you browse the repository using a web
browser, but an SVN client, will do PROPFIND, REPORT, LOCK etc... So all
of the methods have to be available. A potentially easy solution to that
problem is to use https:// Proxies cannot block the http methods when SSL
is used.
