In one of the three subfolders of
C:\Documents and Settings\%user%\Applications\Subversion\auth\
obviously depending on which auth method is used. Can't confirm
this exactly now as on this machine I deliberately did not store
authentication information, and I never used SSH. The path may
differ on your machine, depending of the OS language; I re-
translated it to English.

In addition to my posting a minute ago: the credentials are not
encrypted. You would have to apply access rules on the OS level.

Subversion caches authentication information on the client, so the
first time you connected to this server (for example when checking
out the working copy) you were asked for your username and password,
and then this was saved in the Subversion cache directory. On
subsequent updates, this cached information is used.
This cache is in ~/.subversion/auth on Unix-like operating systems,
and I don't know where on Windows.
