The post you refer to is too outdated. It's not actual in 2012. As far
as I know most of Subversion clients you can find on the web are
already built against 0.29.6.

VisualSVN Server supports Integrated Windows Authentication via SSPI.
Thus VisualSVN Server allows users to authenticate over NTLM and
SPNEGO (aka Negotiate). Negotiable sub-mechanisms include NTLM and
Kerberos.

Integrated Windows Authentication works out of the box however
non-Windows clients (e.g. Linux or OSX) can't benefit from Single
Sign-On, they are limited to NTLM authentication and users are
required to enter credentials explicitly (or not required if the creds
are cached / stored in keychain).

In order to troubleshoot the issue please clarify the following:

1. Do you get a password prompt? Have you tried to explicitly specify
--username <USER> and --password <PSWD> arguments?

2. Is the Linux machine a member of the same Active Directory domain
as VisualSVN Server machine? How do you join the Linux machine to the
AD domain?

3. Please clear authentication cache on client and attempt to
authenticate to VisualSVN Server again. The cache is stored in
"$HOME/.subversion/auth" on Linux machines.

4. Please also clarify what client do you use on Linux.

Please keep us posted.
