Re: linux SVN server with w2k clients and development servers

There are bound to be many ways to achieve this, one approach
would be to use a continuous integration server, such as CruiseControl
or CruiseControl.NET, which polls the repository searching for log
changes. When a change is found, a 'build' is triggered, which in your
case could just be an svn update, or whatever Subversion operation
your require.

If repository polling wasn't to your liking, there was a recent submission
to CruiseControl.NET which forced a build from a NAnt script:

(sorry for the link, tinyurl appears to be down or blocked)

All that being said, if your repository server can see your development
server, than a post-commit hook may be the cleanest/simplist way :)

peace
