RE: RE: svn+ssh problems

I am using the 0.58 line of putty apps.

executing "plink <username>@<saved-session-name>" returns

Using username "kevinw".

and then exits back to dos prompt.

My server log shows that it is accepting the public key.

I changed from plink to pageant and upon opening the repo-browser I get the
message:

"Couldn't load this key (unable to open file)"

I added the key to the key list but I receive the same message.

Thoughts?

In that case, putty *should* open a GUI password prompter
when invoked from Subversion; that works atleast from plink
0.55. plink will determine there is no terminal, and open
a password window.

Yes. And that, in turn, is most likely because you do

  plink <hostname>

What you should do instead is

  plink <saved-session-name>

Alternatively, I strongly recommend to run pageant.exe.
