svn externals: 2 paths for authentication, but only one external?

From: John Owens <john_owens_at_yahoo.com>

In my repository, I have a path /foo and a path /bar.
My users only fetch /foo, but I would like foo to contain bar
when they get /foo (presumably into /foo/bar). I use svn
externals to do this. It works great.

I also have two authentication paths into my repository.
One uses our campus's Kerberos authentication (let's call
this /repository_kerberos). The second uses a password file
(/repository_password).

My problem is that I need to add the external as either
/repository_kerberos or /repository_password. Either choice
locks out the other from updating the external.

Is there any way around this? (What I really want is a
softlink, because the person who uses the "wrong" repository
still has full rights to get /bar, it's just /bar is listed
under the other authentication path and so he can't get it.)
