MKCOL of .... 405 Method Not Allowed

I have recently installed svn 0.18.0 server on Linux, and client only on
Windows (XP).

I have created a repository using file:/// URLs, and I now want to import
files from windows into the repository. I'm attempting to do this via
apache (2.0.44) running on a linux box.

When I try the import, I get an error, 405 Method Not Allowed.

Here's a sample of the command and response:

C:\dev\subversion_prep\bdssrc\staging>svn import
http://bulin/svn/bds/source_repository . --message "Initial embedded code
import" --username richardc
richardc's password: *
svn: RA layer request failed
svn: MKCOL of
/svn/bds/source_repository/!svn/wrk/63518b90-8cd4-e543-838a-5b6cbc7720d1/tru
nk: 405 Method Not Allowed

I have read through the FAQ, and understood the permissions issues. I'm
99.99999% sure it is not a permissions problem. I've tried giving write
permissions to all on every file and directory in the repository, and also
changed ownership of all files to the same user/group as apache is running
under. None of this made a difference.

I noticed another mail to this list that described a problem very similar to
the problem I'm having:

        http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=dev&msgId=217219

However, nobody has helped this guy out yet. Just like the mail above, I
get no error message in the apache logs, and I'm not running via a proxy.

I have ethereal installed, and I have saved a dump of the interaction
between the windows box and the apache box. If anyone wants this, please
ask.

Does anyone have anything that might help me resolve this issue?

Thanks,
Richard
