Setting auto-props on windows server
I am trying to setup auto properties on a new svn repository on a
windows server. Per the documentation, I found the server config file
in the 'ALL USERS' area: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application
Data\Subversion\config, and have edited that as shown below. No
properties, however, get set when a new file is added. Just in case
putting the tsvn props at a file level, instead of dir level was the
problem, I did change the setting for "*.h" to omit the tsvn props, but
that did not help. We did setup Visual SVN Server 1.7.3 and we use
the tortoise svn client, 1.6.5. I thought for sure I'd find the
answer in the FAQ or past emails, but only saw the unix/linux questions,
so sorry if this is a re-post!

I'm pretty sure auto-props is a client slide configuration directive not server side.

FWIW, some folks enforce this at commit time with a pre-commit hook. We just have a script that checks and syncs up the client's config whenever they download a new build, which keeps things mostly in sync.

Well, that explains it I guess! Since the documentation kind of lumped unix and windows instructions together, I took the following to mean that server administrators could enforce this. Thank you for clearing it up and offering your suggestions!
DOC: "In addition to the per-user configuration area, Subversion also recognizes the existence of a system-wide configuration area. This gives system administrators the ability to establish defaults for all users on a given machine...."

Yea, that is misleading to many people. "Global" means global to the workstation.... applies to ALL working copies on that machine. As opposed to "global" being all your clients. It was certainly written by a Unix guy that has multiple users on a single HOST machine.

What happens in that case is that the first time a user uses
Subversion, the defaults in /etc/subversion will be copied to
~/.subversion
Subsequent changes to those system defaults will *not* be reflected in
the user's configuration.
Not sure if this maps to Windows at all (if so, I don't know where
that default would reside).

You are correct, Bob. There is no way to set auto-props from the
server. One can enforce rules related to properties via a pre-commit
hook, but that's it.
I've created a default client config file & had my NetWare
administrator push it out to all users on login if there is a
%APPDATA%\subversion directory for that user.
