Yes there is (although my experience is on a Solaris box). Look at
the link that Andy kindly provided.

My containing directory is not another repository, just a folder. The
full syntax I use to start my service is
svnserve -d -r /ct/ctsvn/repositories
However, if you read the link about starting up as a service, you need
to use the --service option instead of the -d option (as I've put in
my example)

Correct, I have not done that. Each repository is its own, each does
not know about the other, each can define its own security.
