1. Install MyEclipse (we need a distribution method for this, and for the MIT license numbers).  For now it can be downloaded with a 30-day trial license from www.myeclipseide.com.
2. The Subversive SVN client for Eclipse does not come with MyEclipse. This will be one non-MyEclipse-Standard plugin that we will need to support.
   1. In MyEclipse > Help > Software Updates > Find and Install, add two new "remote sites" for subversive plugin and subversive SVN connectors
   2. Polarion's most recent instructions for this are here: http://www.polarion.org/index.php?page=download&project=subversive
   3. Do not install everything on those remote sites.  Install only the "Subversive SVN Team Provider Plugin" and, under Subversive SVN Connectors, the "Subversive SVN Connectors" and "SVNKit 1.1.4 Implementation" features.
3. In MyEclipse, open Window > Perspective > SVN Repository Browsing (or Window > Perspective > Other and select SVN Repository Exploring).
   1. In the "SVN Repositories" pane, context-click and select "new > repository location
   2. Wiki MarkupURL should be "svn+ssh://svn.mit.edu/\[reposname\]/ or svn+ssh://svn.mit.edu/\[reposname\]/\[projectname\] if you are loading one repos with separate projects
   3. "User" is your Kerberos username.  Do not fill in a password.
4. When you open the new entry, you will be asked for a password.  Use your Kerberos password for now.  Do not tell the client to save the password.  It will be remembered for the lifetime of the Eclipse session, which should be convenient enough.

1. When installing Subversive plugins, instead of SVNKit, install the "Native JavaHL 1.4.5 implementation" and "JavaHL 1.4.5 Win32 Binaries" features.  If you have already installed SVNKit, you can install those features and then change the connector to JavaHL by opening Window->Preferences, opening the Team tree item, clicking on SVN, clicking on the SVN Connector tab, and changing the connector.
2. Install Kerberos for Windows and SecureCRT distributions from http://web.mit.edu/software
3. You must create a way for MyEclipse to start ssh.
   1. Wiki MarkupFile based method: You must create a Subversion configuration file in C:\Documents and Settings\[user\]\Application Data\Subversion\config if one does not already exist.    Here is one way of doing this:
      1. Starting from My Computer, navigate to C:\Documents and Settings and navigate into the directory corresponding to your username.
      2. Select Tools > Folder Options, select the View tab, and click "Show hidden files and folders".
      3. Navigate into Application Data.
      4. If it does not already exist, create a new folder named Subversion. Navigate into it.
      5. If a file named config exists, edit it using Notepad. If it does not exist, create a new text document named config and edit it. If there is existing file contents, search for the "ssh =" line and edit it per below; otherwise write the following (note the forward slashes):

         Wiki Markup\[tunnels\]
         ssh = C:/Program Files/SecureCRT/vsh.exe \ -x \ -l \ [your Kerberos ID\] \ -auth gssapi

      6. If you created the file above, you must rename it from config.txt to config. Select Tools > Folder Options, select the View tab, and unselect "Hide extensions for known file types". Then rename the file from config.txt to config.
   2. Environment variable method:
      1. Open the control panel
      2. Select "System"
      3. Select "Advanced"
      4. Click on "Environment Variables"
      5. Click on "New" for your environment variables, not the system.
      6. Enter "SVN_SSH" as the variable name.
      7. For the variable value enter the following (note the forward slashes):

         Wiki MarkupC:/Program Files/SecureCRT/vsh.exe \ -x \ -l \ [your Kerberos ID\] \ -auth gssapi

      8. Click OK as necessary and close the control panel.
4. Make sure you have credentials (via the network identity manager) before using Subversion inside MyEclipse.
