Problem with backslashes and network folder

Hi,

My repo is : \\sargon\svn\project-hermes (as displayed by Explorer)
The URL of my first WC is : file:///\sargon/svn/project-hermes/trunk
(as displayed by Explorer, in the "Subversion" tab)
The URL of my second WC is : file://sargon/svn/project-hermes/trunk
(as displayed by Explorer, in the "Subversion" tab)

Can you shed some light on that difference ? How is it possible that
there are two distinct URLs pointing to the same repo ?
More generally, depending on the WC, the URLs that Tortoise displays
in its window (eg. in the "To URL" fields) are :
- either file://sargon/svn/project-hermes/trunk
- either file://\sargon/svn/project-hermes/trunk
A couple of weeks ago, with a previous version of Tortoise (and/or
SVN), I remember I had to checkout :
file:///\\sargon/svn/project-hermes/trunk
And once, I even had to type "file://\\\sargon/svn/project-hermes/tags/
test" for a Branch/tag command to work !

I don't know if the problem comes from Tortoise, SVN, or both, but it
needs clarification.

Thanks a lot for your answer.
