Thanks for the hint! Turns out there was a Limit GET OPTIONS PROPFIND
around the access control's Requires', and NetBeans didn't find it needed to
forcefully send authentication info.

You said you were using HTTP. Have you looked at the Apache Access
Log? On Redhat, those are in /var/logs/httpd/access_log. I'm not sure
where they are on Windows. On a Mac, you can find it under the
Console.app application.
Subversion itself doesn't have a user database. It gets the user name
from either the environment the user is on, or in the case of HTTP,
from the Apache server. The Apache Access Log will at least let us see
whether or not the user was able to do the commit without signing on.
Is possible that someone used the file:// protocol on the Subversion
repository server itself? Most shops have their Subversion repository
server unaccessible to their users. However, I've seen a few shops
which use a desktop machine for their server, and users are able to
access that machine directly.

I do require the user to sign in. I'm not running svnsync.
Also, svn pl -r 19 (19 is a revision in which ?-authored files appear)
says nothing.

Several things:
Do you reqire the user to sign on? If not, it is possible for the
user name to be blank.
Another possibility, is it possible that someone or some process did a
svn propset --revprop -r $rev svn:author on the repository? That'll
change the author's name (and can make it blank). You're not running
svnsync. Are you?

Hello!
As an SVN server I have subversion 1.6.9 w/mod_svn 1.6.9 on a Debian
box. Authentication is HTTP Basic through HTTPS against an LDAP
directory. Sometimes when doing a commit the username field is empty
in the repository (svn ls shows a ?). I am using two clients:
TortoiseSVN (1.6.7.18415 64 bit built against svn 1.6.9) and the
NetBeans bundled client (version 1.8.1.42.1) Where can I begin to
look for an answer? Has anyone gotten into such a problem?
Thanks for your help,
