Mark,

Thanks for your reply. I tried to set that property and value but I
don't see it anywhere. I have the project checked out into eclipse
already and I right clicked the Modules folder and clicked Properties.
In the window that came up there was an option for Subversion so I
clicked that and I see Path and Url but I can't change those or any of
the properties that I see there.

Is this area I'm looking for somewhere else or am I supposed to do
this on the server somehow?

Thanks,
- Jake
