WebDAV is an extension of HTTP protocol that adds new HTTP methods and headers. The DAV specification defines how the extensions, how requests/responses are formatted which changes the existing HTTP behavior. PROPFIND is used to retrieve properties usually persisted as XML from a resource. Your firewall is introspecting the packets and blocking them causing your SVN client to assume that the requested property cannot be found. You'll have to look at your firewall's documentation to see if they will allow WebDAV packets through. Another solution is for Reactor SVN to allow SSL (HTTPS) connections - no firewall can decode those and I doubt you block HTTPS requests.
