Accessing SVN through a Firewall

Problem:

I am behind a firewall, and I am not able to connect to my Subversion repository.

Solution:

You must open the correct port in the firewall for the repository's protocol. The port based on your repository protocol should be one of the following:

  • svn:// protocol, open port 3690.
  • svn+ssh:// protocol, open port 22.
  • http:// protocol, open port 80.
  • https:// protocol, open port 443.
