I guess you get an "authorization failed" error?
That's a problem with Subversion which I've been pushing for some time
now (search the Subversion dev list for my name, you'll find all the
explanations and reasons why this is and what needs to be done).

As a workaround, read the faq:
http://tortoisesvn.net/node/244

Note: Subversion 1.4 together with neon 0.26.x has a problem which makes
it crash (therefore TSVN crashes too) if you try authenticating with
SSPI but the user is not part of the domain. If you see that TSVN
crashes, go back to TSVN 1.4.0 (which is linked against neon 0.25.x).
The problem is fixed on the Subversion trunk (and merged back to the
1.4.x branch), but Joe Orton just confirmed that the real problem is in
neon itself, which means neon will get a fix for this too (hopefully soon).
