I tried /master/svn/network/... as well. Same results. I can cd /master/svn/network/... svn update and I get any updates from the URL.

I really do not want to run web-dav. I am able to do it if I run web-dav and have my server as a svn master. I have had security issues with web-dav and I really want to avoid running it at all costs.
