We do this too. See my posting to this group on Wed 27/07/2005 11:47 for details. Except that now we use
  AuthzSVNAccessFile "c:/Apache2/conf/repo_access.conf"

We use LDAP to authenticate users and their groups. We use Subversion configuration (repo_access.conf) to check each user's access to repositories and folders within repositories. Make sure group names do NOT contain spaces.
Our default access is "require valid-user", but this is overridden and restricted in the Subversion configuration.

I do it.

I use Apache to mediate all accesses to the repository. Apache is
configured that way (inside a VirtualHost which is dedicated for
Subversion):

 <Location />
  DAV svn
  SVNPath /home/Subversion-Repository
  AuthType Basic
  AuthName "My beautiful subversion repository"
  AuthLDAPURL ldap://ldap.example.org/ou=People,dc=example,dc=org?uid?sub?(objectClass=*)
  require valid-user
  </Location>

It works fine but I believe this setup does not allow for fine-grained
permissions like the authorization file do. It is on my TODO :-)
