Corruption

We have a problem where somehow something was corrupted on a commit in a
new directory added. 

We cannot do a complete dump now as it chokes on that revision: 
svnadmin: Can't read length line in file 'c:\svn\AppTheory\db\revs\2445'

We cannot update from that directory either:

Error: REPORT request failed on '/projects/!svn/vcc/default'  
Error: REPORT of '/projects/!svn/vcc/default': 200 OK (http://myserver)


3 questions:

1. we have had approximately 10 commits since then and I need to know
the best way to deal with situations like this. 

2. what is the best way to automatically backup in the windows
environment. I do full dumps each night but now I am not sure of the
integrity -- it still creates the dump files even though the dump did
not complete successfully. I have heard that it returns codes but I am
not sure how to retrieve them in my script. 

3. Are their commercial products to help manage SVN and SVN backups?

Any help is appreciated.

	Is your Repository stored as FSFS or as a Berkley DB?
The book 'Version Control with Subversion' is quite clear about one  
thing:
Berkley DB:s should be stored only on disks connected directly to the  
server,
and never on any network share. All existing network shares lacks  
essential locking
for this to work.
