RE: svn authentication

Sheryl said:
>> I'm using the Apache server with SSL and LDAP, but apparently the svn
command can't do sessions and still stores the password in plain text in the
.subversion directory on the client. My understanding is that the only way
around this would be to use svnserve with ssh. And for ssh every user will
have to have a command line login to the box (unless we block it with
firewall rules or something). Or have I missed something? <<

Have you considered nologin users? Unless *I'm* missing something, that
would give you SSH, but no command line access.

For example (talking about rsync, but the principle is the same, I presume):
