* Subversion 1.4.x

* Duplicate user management infrastructure of existing svn.mit.edu service

* Cement details of rollout process

* Existing svn.mit.edu repositories are migrated over

* svn.mit.edu becomes separate from cvs.mit.edu

Setup notes for map-dev-svn1.mit.edu prototype server:

* The server is an ops VM image running RHEL 5 with AFS and update_server installed.  The standard IPS user accounts are also installed.

* Subversion setup:

** Created user "svn" alongside the IPS accounts.  Make sure its homedir is mode 755.

** Grab Subversion 1.4.6 from subversion.tigris.org, put in /home/svn/src

** No need to grab the deps tarball; RHEL 5 has adequate versions of those

** Need to install some development packages: yum install apr-devel apr-util-devel neon-devel zlib-devel

** Untar into /home/svn/src/subversion-1.4.6

** Run ./autogen.sh to work around some libtool issue with 64-bit libraries

** Do build with: ./configure \--without-berkeley-db \--prefix=/home/svn && make && make install

* svn-config setup:

** Make a copy of a checkout of svn+ssh://svn.mit.edu/svn-config/trunk into /root

** make && make

 install
* Shell account setup:
** Create passwd entries for the five shell accounts in /etc/passwd:

** mkdir /var/shellacct/{stellarcvs,saisrelmgr,isdasnap,athenasnap,macathenasnap}
** chown stellarcvs:101 /var/shellacct/stellarcvs

** chown macathenasnap:101 /var/shellacct/macathenasnap
* DCM setup:
** cp /etc/passwd /etc/passwd.head
** cp /etc/group /etc/group.head
** If any of the shell account setup is done after this, make sure to propagate it to /etc/passwd.head and /etc/group.head.
** The actual DCM is set up on Moira.  It is an acl.sh DCM which creates /etc/passwd.moira and /etc/group.moira based on the contents of the cvs-users and cvs-groups Moira groups.

** /usr/local/sbin/postacldcm (already installed in the previous step) munges the results into /etc/passwd and /etc/group.

* SSH setup (/etc/ssh/sshd_config):

** Verify that GSSAPIAuthentication and GSSAPICleanupCredentials are set.

** Turn on PasswordAuthentication, KerberosAuthentication, and KerberosOrLocalPasswd to allow username/password authentication.
