Strange Hangs on Debian.

Hi !

I am using Subversion on Debian Stable ( 3.1 ) where subversion is 1.1-4
( I also tried with unstable 1.2.0 the problems stay the same )

First let me tell that everything worked fine until yesterday, the only
change since then were some OS upgrades.
I thought that those could be the cause so i reverted my system to its
original install state ( without the upgrades ) but still the problems
persist..

Ok the problem itself is that anything that accesses the repository just
hangs.... This means accesssing via svnserve, performing status,
checkout, import anything basically. I am even unable to create new
repositories with svnadmin.. this also just hangs... I tried this with
my subversion user account ,but also with root just to etst in different
locations of the file system using both FSFS and Berkley DB
Repositories....

when for example i do svnadmin create /company/projects/test it hangs..
the same for svnadmin create /home/devuser/test

(devuser is my default user that owns every file in /company/ and has rw
rights on all files therein )
I also tried the above with "root" just to check if its a permission
problem...

( remember until yesterday this system ran without problems for 3
months, with much activity on svn repositories going on and over 20
hosted repositories in company/projects )

Accessing the already existing repostiories via a inetd tunneled
svnserve hangs client side as soon as a repository is accessed,
svnserver itself is working fine though ( telneted into it, it works )

Anyone has experienced something similar ? I could nto find anything on
the list, and the FAQ Tells about something similar on FreeBSD ... maybe
a recent debian stable upgrade caused the same behaviour ?

Hope anyone has some clues..... ( btw i also use the umask 002 wrap
scripts for everything svn related. and /company/projects/ is only ever
used by devuser and subversion, so no other processes wirting to it or
anything )
