svn authentication clarification

Hi All,

I find that svnserver authentication requires me to create a file with
username and password.
Is it possible to get svnserver to use the unix login and password ?

Thanks
Lakshman

Use svn+ssh. That way ssh will do the authentication based on your unix
account.
