I'll finally add that I installed svk (version v2.0.2 (using
Subversion bindings 1.4.4)) and svn 1.4.4 on a completely different
machine, copied over the repository and tried to access it there and
got the same reslt. This tells me that its in the svn repo somewhere
that this is happening because thats the only thing I brought over to
the new machine.
thanks again,
Mark
