Dump repos to project in another repos

Good Morning, svn-users-group

Let me introduce myself. I am a IT guy who has been tasked with
administering the svn repository at UC Berkeley IST Application Services
department. I know little to nothing about svn except the rudiments of
processing new user requests, doing the secure key exchange, set up of
eclipse/subclipse and a couple of other simple tasks.

I was asked to move a repository from one location in svn to a project
level in another repository:

/Repos to move: /svn/dsas
Location to move it to: /svn/path/to/new/repos/dsas

I tired to use this command:

svnadmin dump /svn/dsas | \
svnadmin load /svn/path/to/new/repos/as/pctrl-sandbox//

and what it did was put the entire repos structure in the sandbox and
not in the dsas project directory which I assumed would happen since I
named the dsas directory. When I attempted to do:

/svnadmin dump /svn/dsas | \
svnadmin load /svn/path/to/new/repos/as/pctrl-sandbox/dsas/

in order to get it all inside the dsas directory I got:

/svnadmin: Can't open file
'///svn/path/to/new/repos///as/pctrl-sandbox/dsas/format': No such file
or directory
svnadmin: Can't write to stream: Broken pipe
/
Can someone be so kind as to direct me to the proper answer to this
problem?

Respectfully,

Charles
