I don't know.

You're talking about using "svnadmin hotcopy" on the master server,
and using rsync to copy that to a slave server, and have people
accessing the repository on the slave server? I wouldn't recommend
that. If that's what you're wanting, then you should be using svnsync
to do the repository synchronization. rsyncing a hot copy is great
for getting the repository to a machine whose sole purpose is to
store a backup for archival purposes.
