Can't access repository through apache after failed login

["Johnson, Rick" <Jo...@gc.adventist.org>]

I have subversion 1.0.0 (I'm in the process of upgrading), Apache 2 with
OpenSSL. On Windows, Authentication through LDAP to an MS Active
Directory server.
 
Everything works fine until, when accessing a repository, you give an
incorrect password. From that point onward, no user can access that
repository till I restart the Apache server. This tells me that the
problem is probably on the Apache side, but I have no clue where to
start looking. Some google searches came up with way too many pages to
sift through.
