Auth with DAV.

Hi again,

I noticed on svn.collab.net/setup.html that authorization is not yet enabled.

Well, I tried setting up authorization today on my system and my httpd
error_log keeps getting lines of the form:

[Fri Aug 24 14:19:44 2001] [notice] child pid 17020 exit signal Segmentation
fault (11)

Meanwhile access_log keeps getting lines of the form:
129.97.56.2 - - [24/Aug/2001:14:14:28 -0400] "OPTIONS /svn/repos/trunk/its
HTTP/1.1" 401 -

And the client just sits there doing nothing.

I have:
<Location /svn/repos>
    DAV svn
        SVNPath /home/kevin/projects/svn-test/repos
        AuthName "Subversion repository"
        AuthType Basic
        AuthUserFile /usr/local/apache2/conf/svn-users
        require user kevin igor luka
</Location>

in httpd.conf. As soon as I comment out the Auth and require stuff,
everything works fine. Is this to be expected? I know you said we don't do
anything with the uname/password yet, but if it is invalid, shouldn't we error
out, instead of continually requesting things?
