I have encountered a problem for which I've been unable to find a solution.
Using RHEL 5.4 my configuration (slightly obscured for security) below appears to be working in that requesting the defined location triggers an auth prompt. However when using a correct username & password authentication always fails and the auth prompt never goes away until the user presses cancel. When authentication is turned off DAV/SVN operations work as expected. What could be wrong? subversion.conf: LoadModule dav_svn_module modules/mod_dav_svn.so LoadModule authz_svn_module modules/mod_authz_svn.so # Enable Subversion logging CustomLog logs/svn_logfile "%t %u %{SVN-ACTION}e" env=SVN-ACTION <Location /smc> DAV svn SVNPath /var/www/svn/smc AuthzSVNAccessFile /var/www/svn/smc/conf/svn_access.conf AuthBasicProvider ldap # LDAP Authentication & Authorization is final; do not check other databases AuthzLDAPAuthoritative on AuthType Basic AuthName "Service Management Center" AuthLDAPBindDN CN=proxyuser,OU=people,OU=organization,DC=its,DC=university,DC=edu AuthLDAPBindPassword password AuthLDAPURL ldaps://its.university.edu:636/OU=people,OU=organization,DC=its,DC=universit y,DC=edu?sAMAccountName?sub?(objectClass=*) Require valid-user </Location> error.log: [Tue May 25 16:03:56 2010] [info] Init: Initializing (virtual) servers for SSL [Tue May 25 16:03:56 2010] [info] Configuring server for SSL protocol [Tue May 25 16:03:56 2010] [info] RSA server certificate enables Server Gated Cryptography (SGC) [Tue May 25 16:03:56 2010] [warn] RSA server certificate CommonName (CN) `*.uncc.edu' does NOT match server name!?
