putty and svn on windows 7

Hi all,
i'm a beginner on using the subversion... and i would like to know how can i use subversion on ssh...
I've already installed the subversion client and putty on my laptop... and i'm also given the username n pwd on our cs system... can someone guide me on how to set this up?

thanks.

which SVN client are you using?
where do you want to check out the files? In your windows laptop or in some other linux machine?

If you are using tortoise svn client (an excellent, GUI client for svn for windows) and if you want to checkout in your windows laptop, you dont need putty at all.

create a folder where you want to checkout. From that folder right click and select SVN checkout provide your server path and enter your username and password

hmm i downloaded the package from subversion.tigris
since i'll be doing a group project so we'll be uploading all our files to the given cs svn account... and check out onto my windows laptop...
so do you meant i need to install the tortoise svn client... hmmm what's the difference btw this and the one i've installed?
