RE: authentication realm "Internal"

[Now back to the right group instead of google’s mapping]

                Hi,

Subversion just checks the realm string as provided by the HTTP(s) server and hands the password that is attached to that realm string (like all other HTTP tools do). When you use a webbrowser to that same URL you usually see the realm string somewhere in the password dialog.

So to store the password you need to perform some subversion (or http) operation to the repository and then allow Subversion to store the password. If the repository doesn’t allow anonymous access you can just do something like using a repository explorer / svn ls. If this is not the case you do some operation that requires authentication (E.g. committing, or trying to propedit a revision property)

Subject: authentication realm "Internal"

hi,

in .subversion/auth/svn.simple/ we have
<https://repo.server1.net:443> Internal

and
<https://repo.server2.net:443> Subversion: repo

the first one allows access to all repositories, the second one to a specific repository.

how can one get the "Internal" realmstring in the authentication file?

rupert.
