Thanks for the explanation on parentpath and advice on repos. When I first laid out my repos I had 3 but I was having trouble connecting so I removed all but one that I called SVN, I actually uppercased it so it would stick out in the debug log and other possible error messaging. I figured I could make all my mistakes here and then go back and lay out the 3 repos and connect them.
I now have 2 machines working from the same source so I figure tomorrow I will recreate my original repo layout and configure Apache for those three. I have used CVS before so I have some exp in the copy merge model... This will work well. Thanks again.
