For that I have been using https, because that's the only thing I succeeded in using from office, where I am not only behind a firewall but also behind a NTLM-authenticating proxy. In the past (with CVS) I never managed to make it work. Svn works, albeit only with https. As far as I remember, with svn+ssh the hostname is not resolved and I am stuck there. Is there a way to do it (maybe giving directly the IP address?), otherwise I fear it's going to make it more difficult for me.

Also, SVN/SSH vs. HTTPS doesn't change whether you have to do a DNS
resolve. So as far as DNS goes, if HTTPS has been working, SSH should too.
