svnserve authentication strangeness

Hi,

I tried to set up a really simple svnserve on my server and
configured one user who has only limited access to the repository.
The access restrictions/permission work, but when she first tries to
check out from the repository providing the username (from the
svnserve configuration) does not work properly.
We tried this:

svn co svn://username@myserver/myrepository

But the authentication tried to use the local username instead of the
one in the URL. After just hitting return instead of providing a
password svn asked for another username, and then using the correct
server username and password was no problem.
I couldn't really find out in the book if/how the URLs for svn:// are
different from svn+ssh://, so I'm a bit confused about whether this
URL is wrong, or the server setup is not quite correct.

Any hints are appreciated.

Jochen
