Subversion installation problem on Ubuntu 6.10

Hello,

I'm trying to setup a Subversion server on a linux (Ubuntu 6.10) box. I've
already done this on windows, and this is my first time in linux.

I've installed the packages of Subversion 1.3, the problem I have is that I
cannot access my server using svnserve, not even locally, I describe what I
have tried:

1. I created a folder for repositories:
/home/jcarlos/svn_repos

2. Then I create a repository:
svnadmin create /home/jcarlos/svn_repos/misc

3. I try to make the server run, with the next command:
svnserve -d -r /home/jcarlos/svn_repos

4. When I run 'ps aux' I can see the process running:
jcarlos 5031 0.0 0.1 5176 624 ? Ss 08:15 0:00 svnserve -d
-r /home/jcarlos/svn_repos

5. But when I try to access the repository I get the next message:

jcarlos_at_jcarlos-ubuntu:~$ svn ls svn://localhost
svn: No repository found in 'svn://localhost'

6. I run a command for importing a basic repository structure using the file
protocol and everything works fine:
svn import /home/jcarlos/svn_struct file:///home/jcarlos/svn_repos/misc -m
"Initial import"

7. I've also tried adding the next line to /etc/inetd.conf and restarting
svn stream tcp nowait jcarlos /usr/bin/svnserve svnserve -i -r
/home/jcarlos/svn_repos

But it doesn't work, any idea what could I be doing wrong?

Regards,
Juan Carlos
