I'm new to Eclipse, so please bear with me...
I want to connect to a repository. I have instructions for an older
version of Eclipse that say to enter "ip_address/folder" in a URL field.
In my version of Eclipse (I'm using version 3.1.2), I don't have a URL
field. I have Host and Repository path. I've tried every combination I
can think of using the IP address and folder name, but I can't get the
connection to work.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks so much,
Stephanie

That's exactly what I'm saying.
For example, let's pretend the ip address is 123.45.678.90 and the folder
is called Dev. The instructions I received said to type:
123.45.678.90/Dev OR
cvs:\\123.45.678.90\Dev
in the URL field.
For Host, I've tried "123.45.678.90", "\\123.45.678.90",
http://123.45.678.90", etc.
For Repository Path, I've tried "Dev", "/Dev", "123.45.678.90/Dev",
"X:\Dev" (X is the drive I have the ip address mapped to), etc.
I haven't been able to figure out the correct way to connect. I'm pretty
sure the ip address, user name, and passwords are all correct because I
can map a network drive to them.
Does that help explain my problem? I don't understand all the Eclipse
terminology yet, so if it's still not clear, just let me know and I'll try
to describe it better.
Thanks,
Stephanie

Here is a setup that works on my computer and allows me to do anonymous
reads from the Eclipse technology CVS repository:
I assume you are looking at the "Checkout from CVS" wizard, the "Enter
Repository Location Information" page.
For "Host:", enter "dev.eclipse.org"
For "Repository path:", enter "/cvsroot/technology" (note that leading /,
it is important)
For "User:", enter "anonymous" (leave Password blank)
For "Connection type:", enter "pserver", and use the default port.
If this works for you, as it does for me, it should establish that you have
connectivity. Then substitute the appropriate values for your actual
situation.
My guess is that you may not be including the leading / character. I did
that one time, and the resulting configuration does not work.

Thanks to everyone for the help. It turned out to be a very newbie
mistake. I wanted to connect to a SVN Repository, but was trying to
connect to a CVS Repository. Once I had the correct repository type,
everything worked like a charm.
Thanks again for your help!
