no luck triing to install webdav

Hi there,
I just installed subversion from source.
Everything works fine I can access a repository locally and from a remote computer.
Only with webdav I have no luck yet.

When I try to access or create a repository trough dav I get the following error:
robert@chrissy:~/tmp/test> svn import http://salomenet/repos -m 'test'
svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/repos'
svn: PROPFIND of '/repos': 403 Forbidden (http://salomenet)

what I have in httpd.cfg is th following:
<Location /repos>
  DAV svn
  SVNParentPath /home/svn/redrepos/
</Location>

/home/svn/redrepos/ belongs to the user svn anf both group and everyone do have read and write support.

can anybody please give me an idea what more I must do.

thanks
Robert

SVNParentPath specifies the parent directory of N repository 
directories.  It is *not* a repository itself.  If /home/svn/redrepos is 
a repository, then use SVNPath.
