Well, I didn't state it in my original post, but I have the subversion
server set up on a Windows box using Apache as the network server. We wanted
to use our windows usernames and passwords so we wouldn't have to maintain a
separate set for subversion. I used the mod_auth_sspi authentication module
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/mod-auth-sspi) to achieve this.
The problem we're having is that under CentOS, Subclipse constantly prompts
for username and password multiple times whenever you perform any action
that communicates with the server.
I had initially thought that the problem was with SVNKit because when I ran
eclipse on Windows the passwords were being stored correctly under JavaHL
but not under SVNKit. In fact, SVNKit constantly asked for credentials under
Windows like it did under CentOS. However, I tried turning off the Windows
authentication in Apache and SVNKit worked correctly (that is, it saved the
passwords) under CentOS. So maybe the problem isn't SVNKit, but rather
Windows authentication.
I'm not sure if this is the right place to be asking for help because I
don't know what the problem is, but I thought I'd throw it out there in case
anyone had any ideas.
Getting JavaHL to build now may still be a good idea just to see if it
helps, but now I'm leaning towards the idea that it's some sort of
Windows/Linux/Apache thing.
