Since you’re trying to do this over the Internet, you’ll either need your home computer’s public IP address (if you get a fixed IP from your ISP), or you’ll need to set up a public DNS record for your home computer. Both of those are way beyond the scope of this article. You might try looking around for articles on how to host a Web site on your home computer; that would give you enough information to get you through the tricky bits.

However, I tried setting SVN up to access over the internet so that I could access the code in my home PC from my office. However, that has been giving problems. I tried everything I could think of. I get the same error that some of the folks here have got; “svn: Can’t connect to host ‘localhost’: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.”

I have configured my modem for port forwarding, I have added port 3690 to the exceptions in windows firewall and I even have svnserve as well as svnservice residing in the same bin directory. Nothing works Can someone please help me?

Here’s some very general info from the svn FAQ: How do I manage several different projects under Subversion? It doesn’t have any details on installing Apache or setting permissions, but it does go into one of the first questions you’ll need to answer (one repository or several?).

1. I need User1 and User3 can have access to Project2 only
2. All users except User5 can access Project1

Any guide line for this situation?

Thanks in advance
