I went the kerberos way, using AuthType Kerberos in apache config. But I
had it working a couple of month only, on a test server, to evaluate our
planned migration to svn. It gives both a and b.

the apache httpd server authenticates users with the main ADS. Thus
there are no specific users defined on the subversion server.

As the authentiaction is done to the main windows server account, there
is no copy of the accounts. No account names, neither passwords written
anywhere else than the main windows server. To change their passwords,
users do this the usual way with their desktop machines.
