windows: download TortoiseSVN and putty.

I downloaded TortoiseSVN. Putty I already had.

Run putty, create a new session with these settings: host name: svn.mediawiki.org session name: svn.mediawiki.org connection/data/username: a_engels connection/data/SSH/auth/private key: (select your private key)

When trying to actually open the session, Putty says "Unable to open connection to svn.mediawiki.org. Host does not exist"

save this session

Then use tortoiseSVN to checkout svn+ssh://svn.mediawiki.org/svnroot/pywikipedia/trunk/pywikipedia

"Unable to open connection: gethostbyname: unknown error"
