5 seconds of searching on the Internet gave me this: http://zeroset.mnim.org/2012/08/14/svn-over-ssh-with-multiple-svn-users-and-a-single-unix-account-without-shell-access/ http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20176049/multiple-users-of-svn-with-single-ssh-account https://tortoisesvn.net/ssh_howto.html It took me 30 times longer to write this mail than to find the data. TL;DR: you have to use the SSH 'command=' option to change svnserve's '--tunnel-user' option for each of your users. -- Brane
