svn:connection is read-only error (and i have configured svnserve.conf)

Hi,

i'm getting the nasty "svn: Connection is read-only"

when trying to commit the first file to a repository

my svnserve.conf file reads:

[ general]
### These options control access to the repository for unauthenticated
### and authenticated users. Valid values are "write", "read",
### and "none". The sample settings below are the defaults.
anon-access = write
auth-access = write
### The password-db option controls the location of the password
### database file. Unless you specify a path starting with a /,
### the file's location is relative to the conf directory.
### Uncomment the line below to use the default password file.
password-db = passwd
### This option specifies the authentication realm of the repository.
### If two repositories have the same authentication realm, they should
### have the same password database, and vice versa. The default realm
### is repository's uuid.
realm = smileandsoft

and i have set up a few users in the passwd file, and tried to
checkout with and without user and password, and then commiting, any
other reasons why could i get a read only connection?

thanks in advance.

ps: its a svn server version 1.2.1 (r15230) running on centOS, if
that helps...
