Well, the attack Stefan is referring to is if a third-party app (aka virus) tries to bind with SO_REUSEADDR. Prior to Windows Server 2003, this will succeed in messing up svnserve, unless you use SO_EXCLUSIVEADDR. This seems to have been corrected in Windows Server 2003. -- Peter Samuelson | org-tld!p12n!peter | http://p12n.org/
