I want to take svn checkout of repository on my laptop remotely

I have repository that is created using Visual Svn server in my office and i want to take svn checkout at my home laptop. I tried giving http://hostname/svn/svn_repo_name in the url while taking svn checkout

But it gives error saying "Unable to connect to repository at the url, No Such host is known”.

Hostname is created in hostfile. Is there any other configuration needed.

I have also tried the steps mentioned in the below url http://aleemansari.blogspot.com/2015/02/setup-apache-svn-with-wamp-on-windows.html

But after i restart wamp, it does not work and color of wamp icon is orange,it does not turn green

Please need your help.

Like alroc already mentioned, you probably just can't access your company's network. Make sure you can connect by opening cmd and writing:

ping hostname

If you are able to ping the host, then the the protocol of the server is configured to something different from "http". try:

https://hostname/svn/svn_repo_name

or

svn://hostname/svn/svn_repo_name

or

svn+ssh://hostname/svn/svn_repo_name

edit: Basic mentioned, ping command might not always work, so it's not a reliable method for checking connectivity to the server. Anyway, you should be able to connect through one of the protocols if the server IS reachable
