Sorry bit confused here - I tried again this morning - locked one file by me then cleared the
authentication data & locked the next file as someone else. I see the "SVN Lock Owner" column
in explorer & it correctly reflects the lock owner against both files. I assumed then that this
info. is held only in the cache but having killed the TSVNCache.exe process, closed explorer &
starting again I see the lock owners reflected correctly again. Now I assumed it got this info
from the repository & put it in the cache but I'm really not sure as sometimes it doesn't show
& sometimes it does.

I wondered why it didn't use the cache second time around - Thanks
