Sure thing. I'll try to write up a giant setup script for the whole deal. Note that my patch is mostly important in cross-realm cases which are more likely to occur in GSSAPI authentication cases rather than the ldap cases, so it'll be a big setup script (build two test Kerberos realms, configure cross-realm principals, configure svnserve, etc.). It'll be my shell scripting exercise for the week and it'll stand as permanent documentation for how to get GSSAPI+svnserve working. :) -- alec.kl...@oracle.com Oracle Middleware PGP key: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xEBD1FF14
