I am setting up a master-slave repository pair to store files managed by an 
application I am writing.

Both master and slave svn instances are running as Apache webserver modules 
under Windows 7.  I used the RedBook instructions to configure the slave for 
write-thru proxy and this is working properly.  Writes to the slave show up as 
new versions committed in the master.

I executed svnsync init in a cmd shell window to establish the sync 
relationship and set username/password.

I have written a simple post-commit.bat that executes svnsync to send new 
commits to the slave:

@ECHO OFF
ECHO "This is before..." > C:\Temp\post-commit.log
svnsync sync "http://147.20.86.109/CM/"; --non-interactive --password foo
ECHO "This is after." >> C:\Temp\post-commit.log
exit 0

If I execute the post-commit.bat as a stand-alone batch file in a windows cmd 
shell, it works, and the new commits are copied to the slave.  However, the 
same post-commit.bat is not working as a hook script.  When I do a commit on 
the master, the script fails the svnsync step, although other commands can be 
executed successfully as part of the batch file ("svnsyn help > 
C:/Temp/some.log" works, writing the svnsync help text into a file).  I have 
also tried putting "ping <slave ip_address> > C:\Temp\some.log" in the 
post-commit.bat and it will execute properly, writing the ping output to the 
file named.

Has anyone set up a simple master-slave "mirroring" system using the Apache 
webservice installation?  Were you able to get svnsync in a posr-commit.bat 
hook script? Can you see anything wrong with what I am doing?
