Have you tried something akin to the following:
<Location /svn/>
DAV svn
SVNParentPath d:\svn
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Subversion repository"
AuthUserFile passwd
</Location>
<Location /svn/repos-1>
Require user jeffreyp
</Location>
<Location /svn/repos-2>
# Note, I'm not sure these are the only requests needed for checkout
# Can someone else (one of the devs?) fill that in?
<LimitExcept GET PROPGET>
Require user jeffreyp
</LimitExcept>
</Location>
<Location /svn/repos-3>
Require group crack-team-of-ninjas-bent-on-world-domination
</Location>
I figured this all out from the relevant sections in Apache 2's manual,
found at http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/core.html
I believe the Subversion book (being written now) refers to this stuff for
more detail. Hopefully it will remain accessible online after print
publication. That can be found (in a currently out of date version, since
the authors have added a lot recently) at http://svnbook.red-bean.com/
