Re: Need Help Deciding Which Server To Install

hi stefan,

if you want to authenticate via ldap you must use apache and mod_dav
mod_svn. because svnserve doesn't support windows authentication.

this is a good alternative to viewVc.
http://www.polarion.org/index.php?page=overview&project=svnwebclient

the only thing is that you'll need a servlet container like tomcat.
you can put it behind a apache configuring apache as a proxy for the
tomcat or using mod_jk.

and here's one to subclipse:
http://www.polarion.org/index.php?page=overview&project=subversive

it's behaviour is more like native eclipse cvs-support. i'm testing it
right now.
imho it's more intuitive, but seems to be slower on commits.

hope this helps you.

Apache and mod_dav. Coupled with the ViewVC add-on for examing logs or
pulling down individual files, it means that users need not do checkouts
to get individual files or even tarballs, and can actually use WebDAV for
direct access to the head of the repository.
 
Man, that saves work for downloads and file comparisons!

Subject: Need Help Deciding Which Server To Install

To start off I am new to subversion so I am having some difficulty picking
which server version to use (Apache + mod_dav_svn or svnserve). So if
people can offer a suggestion one way or the other I would appreciate it.
 
Here is a profile on what I expect from a users connectivity requirement:
 
Office Users:
connect to server over LAN
use Eclipse IDE
authenticate to domain through LDAP
 
 
Remote Users:
connect to server over Internet
use various IDE's
 
 
If more information is required to make a informed suggestion please let
me know.
Server: Mac OS X Tiger (10.4)
Web: Apache/1.3.33 (Darwin)
SSH: OpenSSH_3.8.1p1, OpenSSL 0.9.7i
 
And speaking of the Eclipse IDE, I noticed that there are 2 plugins
available for it. If anyone can suggest which one to use I would
appreciate that as well. (As a side note, Eclipse is currently configured
to connect to ClearCase)
