Hi Ram,
I followed a setup explained at http://www.linuxjournal.com/node/7655/print
In particular
/etc/apache2/conf.d/subversion.conf contains
<IfModule mod_dav_svn.c>
Include /srv/svn/conf/mod_dav_svn.conf
</IfModule>
mod_dav_svn.-conf contains
Include /srv/svn/conf/public_default_policy.conf
Include /srv/svn/conf/private_default_policy.conf
Include /srv/svn/conf/policies/public/*
Include /srv/svn/conf/policies/private/*
/srv/svn/conf/public_default_policy.conf contains
<Location /public>
Dav svn
SVNParentPath /srv/svn/repos/public
<LimitExcept GET PROPFIND OPTIONS REPORT>
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
Allow from 192.168.69.0/24
Satisfy all
</LimitExcept>
</Location>
/srv/svn/conf/policies/public/crm contains
<Location /public/crm>
<LimitExcept GET PROPFIND OPTIONS REPORT>
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Public Subversion repository for project crm"
AuthUserFile /srv/svn/conf/svnpasswd
AuthGroupFile /srv/svn/conf/svngroups
Require group public_crm
</LimitExcept>
</Location>
I think this is a bit complex, but the article was the only one i found
with a thorough explanation of why things are set up in that way.
Thank you for help
Francesco
