If I create a regular directory simsDir and I try to checkout both
projects in this directory I will get:
svn checkout http://mysite:/mySim1/ .
A mySim1
A mySim1/trunk
A ActarSim/trunk/file1
...
svn checkout http://mysite:/mySim2/ .
svn: '.' is already a working copy for a different URL
So, as you mention, I cannot checkout two different things to the
identical location.

Locally I can create the simsDir/ and inside the regular (non-versioned)
mySim1/ and mySim2/ directories. Then, using

cd mySim1/; svn checkout file:////scratch/hapol/svnroot/trunk .
cd ../mySim2/; svn checkout file:////scratch/hapol/svnroot2/trunk .

everything works and I have the required directory structure.
Unfortunately I cannot make the same remotely as

svn checkout http://mysite.com:/mySim2/trunk .

 does not work for me.

Maybe you would say that I can do a (http) checkout in different
directories... But then, the directory structure will be quite different
of that in local machines; the only way of solving the problem I can see
is using (http) checkout of trunk alone.

And, basically my question is if my impossibility to checkout remotely
(http) the trunk is a feature or is something I am doing wrong (?)
