Possibly a transient DNS error?

What output does the following command give you?

Code: [Select]

$ host svn.icculus.org

My current response is:

Code: [Select]

svn.icculus.org has address 74.81.175.20

:wtf: It's like you're having problems resolving just that address, because you can obviously resolve other stuff (like this forum!) just fine.

What about changing the SVN command to be:

Code: [Select]

svn checkout svn://74.81.175.20/fs2open/trunk/fs2_open

Doesn't resolve your DNS issue, but it should let you grab the code...

Code: [Select]

svn: Can't connect to host '74.81.175.20': Network is unreachable

AFAIK svn protocol uses port 3690, which looks like its blocked for outgoing connections in firewall.
