I've tried and tried to get a per-directory thing going where one was public (anonymous) and others were password protected. IIRC, a problem I had was the public one needed authentication to do an "svn log", even though you could "svn checkout" just fine w/o a password. Anyhow, I gave up. Your repository should be either all public or all password restricted, but not both. Othewise it's too buggy. That's why I have 2 SVN servers running - one for public access and one requiring security clearance.
