I'm on a network at a major bank and I'm trying to connect to a SVN repository from my Windows 7 machine. I'm using the latest version of Tortoise (as of yesterday) 64 bit client.
When I try and connect using repo-browser, I am able to log in with my credentials, but I then get the error, "No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it."
Other people in my network are able to connect to the repository. Someone else out out of the network was able to log on to the repository using my credentials. I also tried to use superuser credentials to log on and got the same error.
I disabled my virus protection software and still got the same results.
I tried accessing from the command line and still got the same results.
I'm sure it's the way my machine or my network is configured, but I am not a network person, so I don't know how to troubleshoot this issue.
It was a proxy issue. I entered in the right proxy information and voila! I was granted access.
