Hi,

I just recently downloaded Ethereal as I was working on the development of a TCP/IP analyser. Then I found out that Ethereal is open source so I set about following the instructions in the Developer Guide. I�ve completed installing all the tools using the Win32 / Cygwin environment and when I run the �svn checkout� command to download the source files I get the following errors:

svn: PROPFIND request failed on `ethereal/trunk`

svn : PROPFIND of `ethereal/trunk`: could not connect to server (http://anonsvn.ethereal.com <http://anonsvn.ethereal.com/>)

I also tried using TortoiseSVN from the windows environment but got the same errors. I�ve turned off the firewall on my computer but I am on a fairly large network so I�d worry that this might affect it. I�m using Windows XP and I�ve installed WinPcap.

As you mention your on a large (corporate?) network.

svn is usually not possible if you have internet access through a (e.g. HTTP) proxy.

You may try the latest one from http://www.ethereal.com/distribution/buildbot-builds/source/
