You get 401 when it doesn't give a username; it retries with the
username and now gets a 404. (Hmm, your first post mentioned a 405 as
well...) I went through something similar and was confused by the 404
thinking it meant "not found"; in the end it turned out to be a stupid
authentication mistake, as in this context 404 can also mean "not
authenticated".

If I were you I'd put a regular HTML file in there and get authenticated
access to that from a browser working. Then go back to Subversion. (Or
maybe you've already tried that?)
