goto AUTH;

Almost. See the goto inserts. The repo server is the backup domain
controller (or rather, since it's Win2003, a peer domain controller).

My (correct) authentication is cached by TSVN. Yet I was still asked to
authenticate. So is it possible that the server is sending TSVN an
incorrect error message? Whether that's Apache stuff or Windows stuff is
beyond me, too.
