I was half asleep when I sent the previous message. I might not have
done what I meant. The solution 2) works just fine. (You dont need the
echo command, ofcourse). One should use --tunnel-user option to keep
track of who is modifying the repository. Otherwise it would look as
if the owner of the repos is doing all the modifications. One can even
force this through sudoers.
But does anyone know why solution 1) does not work?

effectively launches "ssh -u ... svnserver -t" not "ssh sudo -u joe
svnserver -t"
Is that how it is supposed to work? If so why?

Krishna.
