Can checkout from remote but cannot commit

Hi,

I just installed Subversion 1.0.2 on Fedora 2 (the
software comes in fedora 2 CD). 

My problem is I cannot "commit" my changes in working
copy to the repository if I use a different username
to checkout. If I use the same username (used to
create the repository), I can "commit" my changes.

Here is my setup:
1. I use user "cvs" to create the initial repository

2. svnserve.conf contains:
[general]
auth-access = write
[users]
password-db = passwd
realm = My Realm

3. passwd contains
[users]
ht = test

4. I bring up the server with userid "svn" with the
following command:
svnserve -d

I have tried both RapidSVN and TortoiseSVN as clients
on Win2000. I can perform checkout but I cannot commit
changes. The error I get is:
Error while performing action: Commit failed (details
follow):
Connection is read-only

I have tried logging in RapidSVN but I did not help.

Thanks.
Hanny

"[users]" is wrong.

Delete that line.

See:
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/svnbook-1.1/ch06s03.html#svn-ch-6-sect-3.2

for more examples.

Max.
