Hi Pavel,
most users use tortoisesvn. What are the drawbacks of NTLM, SSPI, for Tortoisesvn users? I read some articles about 401 errors etc...
Also, I do not have the AD under control and it would not be easy for me to ask for changes in the AD. Btw. we are using the free version of Visualsvn and I hope to be able to test 1.8rc2 soon.
