I just want to do a svn update on an already checked out working copy.
The problem is that another user checkout the working copy.

No. There are other collaborative ways in which works happens.
We have some development servers in which we may put a project in a
place that's shared by multiple developers. Developer 1 goes home and
requests that Developer 2 update the project.
Sometimes developers work in their own sandbox as well.
Once, we have a RELEASE then things work differently.
Well, anyway that was how we did things sometimes in CVS and a simple
cvs -d $CVSROOT is what most people turned into an alias.
Nevertheless, one of the SVN users showed me how to use SVN_SSH and now
we are in business.
Thanks for everyone's help. :)
Thanks,
