What are you looking for, exactly?
If you need to restrict all access to a path, including read access,
then you need to use Subversion's built-in path-based authorization or
possibly some Apache configuration tweaks. The links you were given
describe this very well - it's up to you to read & understand how they
apply to your environment.
If you need to restrict write access, you can use path-based
authorization or a hook script. One script commonly used for this is
svnperms.py svnperms.py requires more setup, but allows for wildcards
and finer-grained control.
If you're asking someone to show you a reference implementation,
everyone's implementation of access control is a little different;
it's best if you understand *how* it works and then how you can apply
it to your environment.
