no no noooooo.....don't make someone use vim ! :) the subversion appliance has nano (which has the common commands displayed at all times) installed on it.
use this command sudo nano /var/svnroot/wsmrepo/conf/passwd Then, I think there's an example in the text file itself. but the format is user = password after that, save it with ctrl-o, then enter, then ctrl-x then you're done. almost any configuration file in a linux system is editable by any text editor.
