The repository URL is "svn+ssh://my.website.com", the username is correct "tom", and I choose "use private key for authentication" and I navigate to where my private key is in my home directory (e.g. /home/tom/.ssh/private_key_rsa). I have no passphrase for my private key, so I leave that field blank. My SSH server is listening on a port other than 22, so I specify that port and I click "Ok".

Thanks, this helped a lot but it didn't solve the problem. Apparently, my Eclipse installation isn't using the eclipse.ini file the above page recommended to update so I'll head over to Eclipse land to find out how to locate the config file that IS being used and get that updated. :)

Thanks. I'll contact them as well. ;)
