Have you seen the FAQ entry What if I m behind a proxy        edit your  quot servers quot  configuration file to indicate which proxy to use  The files location depends on your operating system  On Linux or Unix it is located in the directory  quot    subversion quot   On Windows it is in  quot  APPDATA  Subversion quot    Try  quot echo  APPDATA  quot   note this is a hidden directory    For me this involved uncommenting and setting the following lines   http-proxy-host my proxy  http-proxy-port 80  http-proxy-username  username   http-proxy-password  password   On command line   nano    subversion servers

There are two common approaches for this    Specify http-proxy- options in your  etc  subversion servers or  APPDATA  Subversion servers file  Use --config-option command-line option to specify the same http-proxy- options in single command-line you run  For example   svn checkout   --config-option servers global http-proxy-host  lt PROXY-HOST gt    --config-option servers global http-proxy-port  lt PORT gt   lt REPO-URL gt   lt LWC-DIR gt      If you are on Windows  you can also write http-proxy- options to Windows Registry  It s pretty handy if you need to apply proxy settings in Active Directory environment via Group Policy Objects
