I don't understand one thing. You said you're keeping an off-site copy of the repository at work. Is this what you're trying to do here? Because as far as I know:
1 - svnsync pushes changes, therefore is must be run on the server thathost the original repo
2 - file:/// protocol is for local access only

Therefore you are trying to sync a repo on your server with another repo on the same server. Is that what you're trying to achive?

Also, I would personally stay well away from file:///. I hope you have set up either http or svn access to the main repo, the one you normally use, so it should be very easy to set it up for the back-up repo too.

Just my 2p (or 2c if you're in America :-)
