[Subclipse-users] Subclipse user authentication under windows

Hi,

couldn't find this online; how do I force subclipse to use a particular
username and password rather than my windows username when connecting to
a subversion server. The site says something about creating a new
project using SVN checkout will give a username/password field that is
best left empty, but I get no such option, and when looking at the SVN
options in the team preferences or repository preferences there do not
appear to be any fields that allow me to say "don't make assumptions
about my username, *this* is what it is".

Right now it will prompt me for my username and password, with my
windows session username assumed. if I change it to the right name and
fill in my password, then click on "save password", it will pretty much
immediately prompt me for my name and password again when retrieving a
new file because it's still using my windows session username, so the
login with the stored password fails.

this is insanely annoying, is there a fix? (for those who might want to
suggest just making an account with my windows username as SVN user, I
do not control the SVN repository and have no control over user names,
or even requesting new ones =/ )
