Yeah, I tried that, still the same error.

Is the 'realm' in svnserve.conf the 'name of the repository'? I'm
unsure of what you're suggesting I should do. Is this what you mean?
(Using the same svnserve.conf as my original post):

drtwox_at_server:~$ cat svn/conf/authz
[projects:] (As I want full access to the svn root)
drtwox = rw

I tried that, still the same "Authorization failed" error. I also
tried a blank authz file, same error again. The following also...
same error.

drtwox_at_server:~$ cat svn/conf/authz
[/home/drtwox/svn]
drtwox = rw

So frustrating... Thanks for the help so far though!
