Good news! With the help of Morten Ludvigsen and Rob van Oostrum, I was able
to resolve this issue.
Here are my notes:
(Slackware-Current)
Reverse Proxy of Apache 1.3.31 to localhost installed Apache 2.0.50 with
Subversion 1.0.6 installed mod_dav_svn
The Apache 2.0.50 httpd.conf should contain:
<Location /svn/public/>
Dav svn
SVNParentPath /usr/local/svn/repository/public
#warning, this is NOT secure, add security!
</Location>
The Apache 1.3.31 httpd.conf should contain:
ProxyRequests Off
ProxyPass /svn/public/ http://localhost:8080/svn/public/
ProxyPassReverse /svn/public/ http://localhost:8080/svn/public/
The repository is stored as:
/usr/local/svn/repository/public/myrepository
Now, the following command should work:
svn checkout http://site.com/svn/public/myrepository/trunk
Note: Read the "Version Control with Subversion" book for more information on
security, and permissions of the repository, etc.
