You're trying to connect as Benoit (gambas at ...733...). It's a bit
confusing because he has the same username on sourceforge as the project
is called :-)

OK, for me (tobiasboe), the working line is:

$ svn checkout --username=tobiasboe svn+ssh://tobiasboe@...733.../p/gambas/code/gambas/trunk

You see where the "gambas" part above does not actually refer to the
"gambas" project but the username "gambas"?

Regards,
Tobi
