You can do 'svnserve --foreground -d --root=/path/to/repos
--listen-port=3691 --log-file=/dev/stdout' and test against that svnserve
instance to ensure the log messages are related to a particular client
action. (You can run multiple instances in parallel.)

If *both* sides see a "Network connection closed unexpectedly" error at
the same time, I would suspect a firewall or proxy or a network
misconfiguration. (That said, I don't see how enabling path-based authz
would affect the on-the-wire traffic, given that anon-access=none is set.)

Try 'svnauthz accessof' and check that your user is reported as "r" or "rw".

Try 'svn info svn://localhost' locally on the server: does it
fail in the same way as on the client?

Cheers,

P.S. If you don't have /dev/stdout you can use --log-file=/dev/fd/1 or
--log-file=$(tty).
