Does authz work even without svnserve?!

This is svnserve.conf:
>>>
[general]
anon-access = read
auth-access = write

authz-db = authz

realm = My First Repository
<<<

This is authz:
>>>
[groups]
admins = gabi

[/]
@admins = rw

# user gabi has no permission to /trunk/ICG folder
[/trunk/ICG]
gabi=
<<<

svnserve was started with "svnserve -d".

From Tortoise (option "SVN checkout...") I do:
svn+ssh://gabi@10.122.17.191/home/gabi/my_project_svn_repo

As expected, all folders from my_project except /trunk/ICG are checked out.

But I noticed that it works even if svnserve is not running! I mean, if I
kill process "svnserve" and I do again "
svn+ssh://gabi@10.122.17.191/home/gabi/my_project_svn_repo" it also works, I
don't get "permission denied" or so... With other words it makes no
difference, with or without svnserve. I can anyway check out! Is it normal?!
What didn't I understand correctly?

Thanks
Gec
