I uninstalled VisualSVN Server and reinstalled it.  During the
install, I let it install to the default locations and chose windows
authentication.  The default locations (c:\Repositories and C:\Program
Files\VisualSVN Server) did not exist before installing.  I created a
new repository adding the default structure. I changed the permissions
of Builtin\Users to read only for the root permissions.  On my new
repository, I added an AD Group and gave it read/write access.

On a different system, I was able to checkout the newly created
repository, which consisted of 3 folders (branches, trunk, and tags).
I created a new text file, entered in a line of text and tried to
commit it.  It failed with "Server sent unexpected return value (403
Forbidden) in response to MKACTIVITY".  Without removing my group from
the permssions, I added my user specifically.  I was able to commit
successfully.  I removed my specific user, but not the AD group that
the user is in, and I am no longer able to commit (same 403 error).
Is there more configuration needed other than to select windows
authentication during the install?  Does the VisualSVN service need to
run with special permissions?

Any help at all would be appreciated.
