Thanks guys,

I guess the book/FAQ needs updating with this info as I couldn't find it
in there.

Keep up the great work

Tim

 This from libsvn_ra_local/split_url.c:
 
   /* On Windows, we'll typically have to skip the leading / if the
      path starts with a drive letter.  Like most Web browsers, We
      support two variants of this schema:
 
         file:///X:/path    and
         file:///X|/path

    Note that, at least on WinNT and above,  file:////./X:/path  will
    also work, so we must make sure the transformation doesn't break
    that, and  file:///path  (that looks within the current drive
    only) should also keep working. */


So, try file:///H:/svn/ .
