Try to connect to the svn port Actual results: Fail. Expected results: Connection to svnserve Additional info: Also true in RHEL5 and even in Fedora 15. Do I need to file separate bugs?
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated in the current release, Red Hat is unfortunately unable to address this request at this time.

Thanks for the report. The protocol name that was registered is "svn", so using that should work: $ grep svn /etc/services svn 3690/tcp # Subversion svn 3690/udp # Subversion
