It depends on your OS and what server you are using. If you are using Apache you stop Apache (service httpd stop), if svnserve then you stop that (service svnserve stop). It really depends on how you installed it. It is also pretty easy to leave a server running but make the repositories all read-only: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2411122/how-to-freeze-entire-svn-repository-to-make-it-read-only You can either alter the authz rules to remove all write permissions or just add a start-commit hook that does an exit 1. -- Thanks Mark Phippard http://markphip.blogspot.com/
