Detailed Instructions for setting up SubVersion w/ Apache & LDAP (Active Directory) on RHEL 5 / Fedora?
Folks,
I'm in the middle on working on a little project to setup SubVersion on RHEL 5 / CentOS 5.1.
I need to have SVN work with Apache, Windows AD (LDAP), and multiple repositories.
I also want to user base to be able to administer their SVN repositories as well.
The format for the SVN repository would be ../svn/<project 1> -> ../svn/<project2>, with each <projectX> directory being it's own svn respoitory.
[There are multiple separate projects here, and I want to avoid confusion by the various team members by having all of the projects under one repository. Is that a good idea?]
For 500 Points, can someone find me DETAILED instructions for setting all of this up?
I'm a noob with Apache & SVN, so I really need things spelled out for me.

I hope it was clear above... the code snippet had both my subversion.conf apache config file and also the kerberos config file.

Heh.
Cool... So I've got questions!
I don't want to use /opt, but another mounted location... will this cause me grief?
I'm actually fine with using LDAP and active driectory. That's not an issue at all...
...my biggest question on that front is actually: How do I limit access to the various repositories when using LDAP?
In otherwords, is there some kind of allow list or something like that for each repository?

Solution was complete for the question I asked, but I should have asked about AD authentication, not LDAP. My fault.
Hi,
I have configured Subversion in Exactly same way as depicted in this thread earlier, and it works great as configured for domain users:
Require user abc@mydomain.com, xyz@mydomain.com
What I need is the conditional access like, some of the members should be able to access some directories and others not and some should have Read only, pretty close as Gerhald asked in the last comment.
Suggestions awaited for alternate configurations also, but my prime concern is related to Single Sign On for SVN from LDAP.
