[Subclipse-users] Subclipse continuous password prompting

I've been struggling setting up Subclipse after a fresh OS install
(Ubuntu 9.04 x86_64). Command line SVN works fine on the same computer
checking items in/out of the same repository. When I try to connect to
an SVN repository via Subclipse I enter my credentials, check the
"remember" checkbox, and submit them. I'm then continuously prompted
for my password again.

I figured at first authentication was failing, but after looking in
our SVN server's Apache access log it appears as though it fails auth,
get's a 401, prompts for auth, successfully makes a request, and then
the next HTTP request does not include user information. Here is an
example of the Apache access log after trying to refresh the
repository folder structure:

As you can see it is making progress with each set of new requests. I
just can't figure out why it is not passing user credentials in
subsequent requests.

Here is what the logs look like when I do an svn list <url> on the
same repository from the same machine.

Client configuration:
 - Ubuntu 9.04 x86_64
 - svn client 1.5.4
 - clean install of JDK 1.5.0_15 x86_64
 - clean install of eclipse-jee-ganymede-SR2-linux-gtk-x86_64
 - clean install of Subclipse 1.6 (with SVNKIT, SVN client adapter,
etc) from http://subclipse.tigris.org/update_1.6.x
 - Eclipse appears to be using SVNKit 1.3.0.5847 (according to TEAM >
SVN > SVN Inteface)

SVN Server:
 - running on Windows server
 - older SVN version (1.2.3)
 - Apache 2 with mod_authz_svn over SSL with custom server cert

Any ideas?

TIA,
Todd
