[PATCH] Add 'Error validating server' section in FAQ

[Jeyanthan]

Hi Team,

I hereby attached a patch to add a question in FAQ section. I am hoping 
it helps some end users who encounters this client side 'Error 
validating server' issue.

I believe the attached patch and log message is self explanatory. Please 
let me know if I have missed something important.

[[[

Added an entry to the FAQ section : For every Subversion operation, I 
get "Error validating server certificate" exception though I configure 
the SSL certificates correctly in the server.

* subversion/site/publish/faq.html : Added an FAQ entry.

Patch by: Jeyanthan Inbasekaran <jeyanthan{_AT_}collab.net>

+<p>In some cases, even if you accept this by enterinp 'p' option, the
+next time you access SVN, the same exception appears again. There can
+be multiple reasons. The problem may be, that the subversion
+configuration directory, which is normally under your ~/.subversion has
+wrong permissions, so that each time you want to permanently add the
+credentials, svn actually cannot do so, and also doesn’t inform you
+that it can’t.<br />
