You're right - when I remove the host from the default settings so
that it is blank instead (I could not remove the port 22 so I kept
it), TortoiseSVN 1.5.5 does work. I also removed my default login name
from the default settings.
The weird thing, though, is that the host for my default settings in
PuTTY is the same host that I was connecting to anyway - the same IP
address - so it is hard to see why this would cause an error. I would
also like to keep the default settings so that I can use PuTTY more
easily. But it is good to know that this is the problem.
