Hi Adam, VisualSVN Server 1.6.x uses a different method to store Windows user permission data than the normal authz or passwd files. If you have previously been using SVNServe, then switch to using VisualSVN Server with Windows authentication, it will not import the current permissions you have specified in your passwd file, you will need to recreate them using the VisualSVN Server Management console.
A message to this effect pops up during the installation of VisualSVN Server.
