Step 1

The SSH Key

To access Subversion on the server, you need to activate the security key. This is contained in a special file, which on Windows systems displays a secret agent logo like that shown in the illustration to the right. Click on this logo to activate your key.

Step 2

Entering a password

If your key is protected by a password (it should be, for security purposes), a prompt like that shown to the right will be displayed. Enter your password and hit Enter, or click on the OK button. This will activate your security key for all connections to Subversion on the server.

It is convenient to activate your security key in this way before beginning to work on the website.
