I cannot set up svnserve on the netapp where our repo lies. I was under the
impression (from
http://tortoisesvn.net/docs/release/TortoiseSVN_en/tsvn-repository.html)
that FSFS repos on network shares were OK now. The netapp makes sure stuff
is backed up.

I am not using tortoise, just plain command-line svn. This machine is going
to be our build server, so I'm setting up CCnet on it. Since CCNet will run
as a service, I cannot set up drive mappings (which would make the problem
go away) since drive mappings are (AFAIK) tied to session initiation
(login).
