It's not in a config file; it's a command line parameter that you
pass to the svnserve program when you start it. Please see the book...
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.2/svn.serverconfig.svnserve.html
...especially where it shows how to use the -r option to svnserve.
Since you're running it from inetd, you'll probably also want to make
sure svnserve is being started with the --inetd option.

Ok, you can dump and load if you like. Some performance improvements
were made in 1.4 which you only get if you dump and load, so you may
enjoy those. But it didn't help with the fundamental inability to
connect, right? You still can't connect to your svnserve, either from
the local machine or from another?

Have you in the past been specifying the absolute path to the
repository in your access URLs? As far as I know, that would be
necessary if you do not tell svnserve where to serve from. Something
like:
svn ls svn://svn.example.com/absolute/path/on/server/to/repository/

I have no experience with inetd so I don't know. But I have seen
telneting to 3690 suggested in the past for debugging svnserve
connectivity issues.

I don't know; I'll let someone else answer.
