I'm trying to execute the following command

first I tried

svn co svn:://<ip address>/<repo path>

and it says

svn: Client error in parsing arguments

svn co svn:://<ip address>/<repo path> .

and it says (Please not the . I added at the end of the line)

svn: 'svn:://' does not appear to be a URL

I'm sure the path is correct

Does any one could help me

thanks in advance

Change it to:

svn co svn://<ip address>/<repo path> .

You have an error - there is no double colons there. You have http://, https://, ftp:// and svn://. All of them use single colon.
