I'm not familier with AD so I can't say the steps.
As I see in neon the Win SSPI auth should use NTLM or Negotiate.
It's needed to test SSPI/Negotiate as it has same definition as
GSSAPI/Negotiate.

Using SSPI is described here:
http://tortoisesvn.net/docs/release/TortoiseSVN_en/tsvn-serversetup.html#tsvn-serversetup-apache-5
I read somewhere:
if there is kerberos ticket (not the MIT on) SSPI uses the Negotiate
else it uses NTLM auth.

In TSVN should be ok to access repo browser (go throught authentization).

Thanks a lot for the test effort.

I'm using only MIT krb but this is the only way to propagate the change
into TSVN source code.
