Please define "not work".

I just did the following in one CMD window:
C:\>svnserve --foreground -d --root c:/Repositories/test

It then sits there, no prompt returned, as svnserve is sitting there, listening.

From a second window:

C:\>svn ls svn://localhost/
Old/
Playgrounds/

C:\>

Seems to work for me.
