svn console E210007 error

Hello.

I installed the latest TortoiseSVN version with the console client support. However the client failed to check out the repository I needed with error

"svn: E210007: Cannot negotiate authentication mechanism".

After doing some searching I found out that this problem occured only with the repository which had URL starting by 'svn://'. Other repositories included those hosted on Sourceforge and Google code worked fine.

I found the solution here:
http://subversion.open.collab.net/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=4&dsMessageId=359314

It was simple: I only needed to add one key to the Windows registry
(SearchPath in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\​SOFTWARE\Carnegie Mellon\Project Cyrus\SASL Library set to TortoiseSVN bin directory).

It worked. My colleagues had the same problem and the same solution was fine for them too.

I guess it is TortoiseSVN installer's fault that this key is not set up properly.

System info: Windows 7 64 bit (32 bit also had this problem which could be solved in the same way)
