Subversion repository not accessible as anonymous

http://www.boost.org/users/download/#repository says that "Anonymous, read-only access to the Boost Subversion repository is available at http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost." My attempts to make checkout results in svn prompting for credentials. Seems like misconfiguration to me. - ML

Just created a new user on my box (so it wouldn't use any existing credentials and tried it): $ svn ls http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost branches/ empty/ sandbox/ sandbox-branches/ sandbox-tags/ svnmanager/ tags/ trunk/ website/ $ svn co http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/trunk/more A more/blanket-permission.txt A more/getting_started A more/getting_started/unix-variants.rst A more/getting_started/windows.rst A more/getting_started/detail A more/getting_started/detail/common-unix.rst [ snippage ] Checked out revision 75761.

Thank you. I tested with another machine (in another network) and there it worked while still failing on first machine. I can live with that. - ML
