Thanks for the help, but I am aborting the project. I am running into too many hurdles due to the restrictions of the hosted server environment. (I did alter configure and ran into further problems).
I am going to have to take a different approach to get my mantis and svn talking to each other. I am not looking to reinvent the wheel here so I may just move this all to a server I have root access to. Thanks again for the help.
