Hi Graham,
I followed each and every step faithfully as given in Developer's
guide , but still I am not able to get the source and I get the same error.
I download source from
http://www.wireshark.org/download/src/wireshark-0.99.5.tar.gz
separately(without SVN), untarred it through cygwin, and then tried to put
the source into SVN( by specifying the untarred file directory in the
checkout file option ). I got the error "Error: Unable to open an ra_local
session to URL "
I hv even mailed to the dev guide of Tortoise but no reply from
them....
Ur advice is very essential .... Pls help

I have special "Downloading Rights " in my office and my m/c is not
behind
any firewall. I downloaded a tortoise SVN( recent SVN 1.4.3 win32 ).
When I try to do "svn --version" on my cmd line , I get an error
"The
application has failed to start because cygdb-4.2.dll was not found. Re
installing the application may fix this problem".
After this, I tried to repair with installer package.
Later I uninstalled the present client and re-installed the windows
installer package again from the Tortoise website but again found the
same
problem(given below). I read sections 3.3.2 and 3.3.3 and 3.3.4 of
Developer's guide.
How can I proceed further? Pls advice
The dll error was probably because your command line is picking up a
cygwin version of svn. Tortoise does *not* provide a command line
version of svn. It does provide some command line tools, but they
aren't the same as standard svn.
Using TortoiseSVN, open an Explorer window, right click any directory or
drive and choose "SVN Checkout..." from the context menu. It might be
in the TortoiseSVN sub menu.
In the resulting dialog, enter the correct url
(http://anonsvn.wireshark.org/wireshark/trunk) in the "URL of
repository" field, and a suitable local directory in the "Checkout
directory" field. Ensure the two check boxes are cleared and select the
"HEAD" radio button. Click "OK".
After a suitable period of time you should have the source tree on your
local hard disk. Continue as per the developers guide.
