Re: Could not obtain the list of SASL mechanisms

Hi Stefan,

Thanks for your help. SVN is now popping up the MD-5 authentication
window when connecting to the local repos. But, again, stuck with the
user authentication part. I used "saslpasswd2 -c -f \conf\att_sasldb -
u TempRepo aditya" to add a user. The command prompt asked for
password and confirmation string, but then immediate threw
"saslpasswd2: generic failure".

Can you please help?

Thanks in advance.
Ad.
