We've already got a couple of reports from users using the 1.3.0RC1/2 versions of TortoiseSVN that they can't connect to their repositories anymore because of this. Some could make it work by disabling the guest account, but some of them simply can't disable that account because they need it.

Do you have an idea on how to solve this? Maybe a new option for mod_auth_sspi to not authenticate as user "guest"? Or is a change in neon required? Or in Subversion?

Maybe the whole SSPI auth feature could be made run-time configurable in neon and not compile-time configurable?

Yes, allowing the application to select which auth protocols to enable is something that's on the TODO list. (it is relatively simple to implement in neon, but requires some new interfaces; making it configurable in Subversion is probably more work)

I'd really appreciate it if you could implement those interfaces in neon soon. Once that's done, I can try (or maybe someone else more familiar with Subversion) to implement this in the Subversion lib.

Right now, I've disabled SSPI support in the 1.3.x versions of TSVN: it's better to not introduce new features which can prevent existing users to connect to their repository without any chance of working around it with an option/setting/whatever. It's enabled on TSVN trunk however, so I can run tests and let others test it as well.
