RE: svnserve authenticating against Windows domain credentials

SASL claims LDAP and Kerberos support.. that should be enough. Though
the SASL project clearly doesn't care much about the Windows platform.
It would be strange for SASL (or svnserver for that matter) on windows
to not support the primary means of authenticating users on Windows -
what would be the point?

I currently have every one of the developers use the same password..
since it can't be tied to their domain login anyway, and it makes no
sense to put their "real" password in a plain text file, and there is no
way for them to change their own password. Yet STILL they always have to
ask me what it is!

I was under the impression it was only done for Apache servers? You
are saying it also does it for svnserve using SASL? I did not see
anything in the SASL documentation that implies there is a supported
plugin for Windows authentication.
