svnisapi looks interesting. Also looks like they are "leveraging" some copy from our website :)

Hello Guys,
just stumbled upon a product called SVNIsapi (http://www.svnisapi.com). The company claims that you don't need an Apache or SVNSERV service for hosting a Subversion repository. Didn't have the time to check that. But hopefully over the holidays i get some free time. -

OK, thanks for the quick response.
For us it would be a big plus if we could use LDAP without apache as described. -

svnserve is currently included in the Subversion download that gets installed when you install sublime. When using LDAP, user licenses are consumed as users are granted access to repositories. So if you add user x to a repo, you have one less available user license to use. If you remove user x from that repo, that license becomes available again.

As long as the sublime webinterface keeps working and it is possible to manage user rights per repository via this interface it is OK.
svnserve is a program wich need to be installed on te server?How does sublime handle user licenses with LDAP?
A count on every user which has rights on one or more repository? -

In our current subversion setup (not Sublime) we need Apache for the Active Directory authentication for users and groups along with the other requirement of SSL which we can only get with the https:// protocol.

It may be possible to support LDAP auth through svnserve with SASL. That would mean users would access repositories via svn:// protocol, not http. Would that be acceptable?
