Andy, 

I've tried that here's the updated one from 10 minutes ago. 

Still can't authenticate. I also added a new users name and pasword. 

Does it matter on what modules I need or not need loaded 

for basic authentication?? 



<Location /svn/> 
#<Location C:\svnrepos\test1> 
DAV svn 
#SVNPath C:\svnrepos\test1 
SVNParentPath c:\svnrepos 
#SVNListParentPath on 
#SVNParentPath C:\svnrepos 
# SVNIndexXSLT "/svnindex.xsl" 
AuthType Basic 
AuthName "Subversion repositories" 
AuthUserFile passwd 
#AuthzSVNAccessFile svnaccessfile 
Require valid-user 
</Location>

Change your DOS backslashes to regular slashes (\ to /) in the paths. 
Apache is interpreting them as an escape character. 

When you point at your repository, you should be pointing at 
http://server/svn/REPOSNAME where REPOSNAME is the name of the 
directory you've created under c:\svnrepos when creating the 
repository. So if you ran: 

svnadmin create c:\svnrepos\test1 

then your URL is http://servername/svn/test1/
