Thanks for the quick answer, Holger!
I did some more tries today, and now there are the authors I was waiting
for. No idea, why it didn't work out yesterday :-(
In the end I think setting up Subversion was much easier than I expected :-)

PS: Sorry for answering directly to Holger, this was an accident.

| Hi Alexander,
|
| just some quick "troubleshooting help":
|
| >But here I'm doing authentication ...?

| Are you?
| Or are you just trying to?
| To limit the number of possible problems, check if you get a password
| prompt in a browser!
| I.e. just call one of the svn-URLs in Mozilla / IE / whatever.
| I'm almost sure this is an Apache configuration problem and not at all
| related to Subversion.
|
| The Apache configuration looks ok, though. Should the location be
| "/svn/" instead of "/svn"? I'm not sure...
| Take a look at the Apache log files - any error messages? I personally
| think Apache ist not very "user friendly" in that respect, it usually
| takes me some trial and error to get everything working.
| Go step by step, maybe try it without SSL first...
| As soon as you get the password prompt in the browser, you should also
| see the username in the Apache access logs.
|
| At that point, I'm (almost *g*) sure Subversion will be fine :-)
|
| Good luck!
|
