You're preparing inetd to be the "super server" for svnserve. To start the
service, you need to start inetd. Since /etc/inetd.conf didn't exist, you
may need to install and configure inetd before continuing.

Did you try running 'svnserve -d' in one terminal and 'telnet localhost
3690' in another? The book details this test and what should be returned. If
you get the correct result there, it should be safe to assume that svnserve
is installed and functional, and the rest will be configuration issues.

>svn co svn://localhost/home/jont/Work/repos
>subversion/libsvn_ra_svn/client.c:150: (apr_err=111)
>svn: Can't connect to host 'localhost': Connection refused

That sounds like svnserve (or inetd) is not running - there is not an open
socket for svn to connect to. Your syntax here looks correct once svnserve
is configured properly.

Hope that helps.
