Okay. I installed svn 1.4.2 (tagged in the source) on Ubuntu. "svn
--version" at the command line produces the 1.4.2 version indicator. Also,
I can update and commit using the command line the projects I'd previously
checked out when subclipse was working, i.e., before I changed my NT
password.

However, when I fired up eclipse, I get the same problem, which is that it
constantly asks me for a password in both the team -> update process, and
the SVN explorer perspective.

I even uninstalled the default ubuntu edge subversion package (apt-get
remove --purge subversion libsvn0).

This is so strange. All I did was change my NT password! All command line
versions work just fine with the new password. Is there any way to see
debug output?

If you use 1.3, you will just need to checkout again since your working
