buildnumber-maven-plugin cannot check the latest revision number of the svn code base.

when i run mvn compile
on Ubuntu 11.10 i got error message as following
[INFO] --- buildnumber-maven-plugin:1.0:create (default) @ some-module ---
[INFO] Change the default 'svn' provider implementation to 'javasvn'.
[INFO] Checking for local modifications: skipped.
[INFO] SVN update directory: /path/to/my/project/some-module
[ERROR] Provider message:
[ERROR] SVN update failed.
[ERROR] Command output:
[ERROR] svn: Authentication required for '<http://my.svn.host.com:80> Subversion Repository'
at the same time, the svn up
works fine.
But i run the same command on Window 7, this plugin can get the revision number and the error message do not show up and i use TortoiseSVN can also update the module.
So there MUST has a default config for maven-scm-provider-svnjava plugin to get the username and password for the subversion repository? Where is it? How to configure this?
I already tried mvn compile -Dusername=xxx -Dpassword=yyy
, it works but the username and password parameters conflicts with my database configs. BTW, settings.xml file in the .m2 directory only has Maven Repository configs.
I user java 1.6.0-31, maven 3.0.4, TortoiseSvn 1.6.16, svn 1.6.12 on Ubuntu 11.10.
Update
Turn out that the answers is related to this question: SVN won't cache credentials, problem solved.

settings.xml, server section
id must correlate to connection in scm section
