Thanks - I've tried that too and while
"C:\Program Files\putty\plink.exe" user_at_host -i "C:\Users\Administrator
\.ssh\myprivate.ppk"
works fine.. when I edit the config with the same line (ex the
user_at_host) I get
svn: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: Can't create tunnel: The system cannot find the file specified.
back from SVN
I must be missing something else
