configuring authentication on apache 2

i just read through
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn.serverconfig.httpd.html and i
have a couple questions. if i use a block that sets 'SVNParentPath
/srv/svn/repos' for <Location />,

[1] this means that i do multiple `svnadmin create <projecname>` within
/srv/svn/repos, right?

[2] can i do other blocks that define things for subdirectories? (i want to
have everything in the environment the same for all repositories, but
different AuthUserFiles for each subproject)

thanks,
john

Correct.  You'll have multiple separate repositories.

You can set your access config with as many subdirectories as you
want, just make sure you put some thought into it before you start. 
AFAIK, you need to use one AuthUserFile for all repositories.
