How can i simplify the login with Windows domain authentication?

All,

How can i simplify the login with Windows domain authentication?

At the moment, when I do a simple command, I will need to type "svn ls
--username MYDOMAIN\bazthemail http://svn.company.com/svn/REPO_NAME"

Is there a simple way to do it so i do not need to type such a long command
everytime?

Thank you.

B.

"The per-user configuration area also contains a cache of  
authentication data. The auth directory holds a set of subdirectories  
that contain pieces of cached information used by Subversion's  
various supported authentication methods."

Sometimes, I do not even need to apply userid/password to operate, does svn
store the login information somewhere?

Precisely, is there any configuration files or environment variable that i
can store the <domain>\<userid>, <password> information?

Thanks. B.

My users does not need to supply the domain name, because i told my  
smb.conf
	winbind use default domain = yes
And i use apache 2.0 authPAM using pam winbind using samba for auth.

For apache 2.2 i was planning to use authnz_external and the external  
pwauth program that checks auth against pam. But today one of my users  
told me that he ported apache 2.0 auth pam to apache 2.2. We are going  
to test it on a test server, then possibly on the production server,  
and then we'll probably release it.

But maybe authnz_external is better because it doesnt need apache to  
start/run as root?
See these articles:
	http://blog.innerewut.de/2007/6/26/apache-2-2-authentication-with-mod_authnz_external
	http://www.unixpapa.com/pwauth/


All this should allow you to only supply the username, which is a  
little less.
