[Subclipse-users] Eclipse + SVN + Apache + SSPI

Hello, I'm having a problem using Subclipse with SVN + Apache + SSPI
authentication. Actually, SVN + Apache + SSPI is working great. I followed
online resources and resolved a few sticky points regarding domain group
access, and all works well now. When browsing from IE the authentication is
automagic and from Firefox it prompts first, and then works as expected.

However, when trying to use the Subclipse plugin with Eclipse it just fails
and does not prompt for authentication. Happens if I use the JavaHL (JNI)
or JavaSVN (Pure Java) interface... Seems like it doesn't honor the request
to display authentication prompting over HTTP. The "SSPIOfferBasic" tells
Apache to offer a basic logon if SSPI is not available (i.e., Firefox versus
IE), but it's as if Subclipse doesn't have the ability to do basic
authentication.

Am I missing something, or is this a bug, or a new feature? If one of the
latter, is there a way to work around this? Thanks for any info.

FYI, my Apache config (read the #### as obfuscated text... I have a valid
name in there):

<Location /subversion/####>
    DAV svn
    SVNPath d:\userdata\projectserver\svn\####

    AuthzSVNAccessFile d:\userdata\projectserver\svn\####\conf\access.conf

    AuthName "Domain Authentication [DOMAIN\user]"
    AuthType SSPI
    SSPIAuth On
    SSPIDomain ####
    SSPIAuthoritative On
    SSPIOfferBasic On
    SSPIUsernameCase Lower
    SSPIOmitDomain Off

    Require group "DOMAIN\####"
