I don't exactly understand the question, what is the RA layer?

What I did get e.g. is:
[stephan_at_ernie ~]$ ldd /usr/bin/svn | grep neon
        libsvn_ra_neon-1.so.0 => /usr/lib/libsvn_ra_neon-1.so.0 (0x00d9a000)
        libneon.so.27 => /usr/lib/libneon.so.27 (0x06ce0000)

[stephan_at_ernie ~]$ ldd /usr/bin/svn | grep serf
returns nothing.

So I assume that I am using some RA layer via HTTP with neon.

I used to work with eclipse. But error messages there were not really
helpful. Therefore I once started eclipse within an xterm to get
information printed on STDOUT. There was a message like:

ssh: Could not resolve hostname myserver.com:9630: Name or
service not known

Therefore I then tried svn on the command line, similar as described by
David in the initial message of this thread.

Best regards, Stephan
