Thank you for the prompt reply, Mark. I am using JavaSVN, not JavaHL.
Sorry for omitting that in my first message.

When I first start browsing a repository, JavaSVN brings up a dialog
prompting me for my user name and password. This is a bit odd, as I am
working in a Kerberos environment that should allow cross-machine SSH
without additional password queries. Perhaps JavaSVN does not do GSSAPI
credential passing?

In any case, once I type the password I can browse that topmost level of
any Subversion repository. However, if I try to continue with more
browsing, that's when things hang with "Fetching children ...". If I
have two SVN repositories on the same svn+ssh host, I can browse the
topmost level of one of them but then things hang if I try to expand the
topmost level of the other.

So perhaps what's really going on is that the SSH connection is cached,
and the first request is OK but all subsequent requests get into trouble
somehow. Is that a useful clue?
