If you can use a repository anonymously, svn never even gets asked for
authentication.
But I guess you're just using the wrong url. Many servers are set up to
allow anonymous access via http, but authenticated (including commit)
access via https. Or some other part of the url is different.

Just either check out from the correct url, or do a relocate to the
correct url.
