Following the instructions here:

 

http://wiki.developerforce.com/index.php/Force.com_IDE_Installation_for_Eclipse_3.6

 

I am trying to install the force.com ide for eclipse, however when I add the site

 

http://www.adnsandbox.com/tools/ide/install/

 

It gives me the error

 

Authentication failed for http://www.adnsandbox.com/tools/ide/install/

 

What is going on here and how do I fix it?

It's happening to me too.

I guess we need to wait a little for an official answer :S

Hi,

I have just managed to upgrade my existing installation. 

I assume that it uses the same adnsandbox repository. 

I am using a Mac and a pre-existing Eclipse Helios with Force.com IDE plugin.

I've also run into this problem repeatedly, with multiple versions of Eclipse. What finally worked for me was advice I found for a slightly different problem:

Basically, you close Eclipse, delete the $ECLIPSE_HOME$/configuration/.settings/org.eclipse.core.net.prefs file, and reopen Eclipse. It worked fine for me after that.
