Try running svn command with --no-auth-cache switch.
Not really see what's wrong with your setup...
For a convenience, here's my own configuration of authorization block (It
using SSPI module, however, you have to replace relevant directives by ones
suitable for your auth scheme):
ServerName svn.mydomain.local
ServerAlias svn.example.org
DocumentRoot "C:/home/svn"
AddDefaultCharset utf-8
ErrorLog "C:/home/svn/.log/error_log"
CustomLog "C:/home/svn/.log/access_log" common env=!SVN-ACTION
CustomLog "C:/home/svn/.log/svn_access_log" svn env=SVN-ACTION
# some private stuff here to make all things to work straight
Order allow,deny
# Limit access to single local IP
# unless we have working authorization scheme
Allow from 192.168.1.10
DAV svn
SVNParentPath "C:/home/svn"
Allow from all
AuthName "Subversion repository"
AuthType SSPI
SSPIAuth On
SSPIAuthoritative On
SSPIOfferBasic On
SSPIOmitDomain On
SSPIUsernameCase lower
SSPIBasicPreferred Off
# only developers may access the repository
Require group "EXAMPLE\CVS"
# And they should obey to SVN user permissions file
AuthzSVNAccessFile "C:/home/svn/.registry"
