secure svn

Hello,

I have svn installed with apache and ldap.

Accessing apache pages requires ldap authentication. The svn repositories are defined in apache using <Location> directives. All <location> directives have this:

<Location /svn/ABC>
DAV svn
SVNParentPath /jupiter/svnlinks/ABC
Options FollowSymLinks
AuthBasicProvider ldap
AuthLDAPUrl ...
<LimitExcept GET PROPFIND OPTIONS REPORT>
Require valid-user
</LimitExcept>
....
</Location>

<Location /svn/ABC/XYZ>
DAV svn
SVNParentPath /jupiter/svnlinks/ABC/XYZ
Options FollowSymLinks
AuthBasicProvider ldap
AuthLDAPUrl ...
<LimitExcept GET PROPFIND OPTIONS REPORT>
Require valid-user
</LimitExcept>
....
</Location>

I modified the above location to:

<Location /svn/ABC/XYZ>
DAV svn
SVNParentPath /jupiter/svnlinks/ABC/XYZ
Options FollowSymLinks
AuthBasicProvider ldap
AuthLDAPUrl ...
<LimitExcept GET PROPFIND OPTIONS REPORT>
Require valid-user
</LimitExcept>
....
AuthzSVNAccessFile /jupiter/svn-acl
</Location>

When I added svn-acl file, I got permission denied error. The file has this content:

[ABC:/]
*=rw
[ABC:/XYZ/123]
user1=rw (to note that user1 is a ldap user)

Could you please advise on what is missing to secure svn access to 123/ repository?

thank you
