You do not need a tunnel user, and one is not supported anyway. httpd runs as a user, and all OS level read/write is by that user. It needs to have permissions to the repository files on disks. Apache authenticates users however you have configured it, and the svn:author is set based on the authenticated user. -- Thanks Mark Phippard http://markphip.blogspot.com/
