That's easy. I just followed the formerly available description on the
tortoise SVN web page :-)

My Apache configuration is as follows (http.conf):

<Location /svn/test>
DAV svn
SVNParentPath "D:\SVN\test"
SVNIndexXSLT "/svnindex.xsl"
AuthType SSPI
SSPIAuth On
SSPIAuthoritative On
SSPIDomain MYDOMAIN
SSPIOfferBasic On
Authname "Subversion repositories for test"
<LimitExcept GET PROPFIND OPTIONS REPORT>
        Require valid-user
</LimitExcept>
</Location>

(Actually I don't know where I got the SSPIOfferBasic directive from).

I'm using SSL connection (put on port 10443 with the description from
the TSVN side), so there is no Listen directive in the http.conf.

The apache status in the monitor says:
Apache/2.0.47 (Win32) mod_auth_sspi/1.0.1 DAV/2 mod_ssl/2.0.47
OpenSSL/0.9.7b SVN/0.30.0

Never mind: it was a quick test just deleting the "auth" directory in
the "Application Data" dir of TSVN and I think that's just a stupid test
;-). At least I can say, that the "addition" of a new user works
flawlessly (first access and checkout). So in "my" environment SSPI
works fine.

But I'm a bit worried now about an update to SVN 0.32 (and a new TSVN,
when available).

If you have any furthere questions just ask.

Cheers,
