I am trying unsuccesssully to set up svn server on a centos vm.
I have followed 3 different tutorial and everytime ended up with the same result so I guess its time to ask for some help!
I have created an svn user, svn group, created a repository, this is all fine and worked every time and I get all the svn directories under /home/svn/repositories.
Now is where I am confused, I can never log into svn using tortoise plink and a username\password. It always fails to authenticate me. I have tried setting the ssh login for the svn user and the svn users password in the /conf/passwd file to the same thing and still cant get in.
Do I use the ssh login details(which work using putty) for my user account or do I use the ones I can enter into the passwd file in my repo/conf/passwd?
I should have added that I can access via the commandline using:
svn co svn+ssh://svn@myhost/myproject
Checked out revision 0.
This seems to be what the tutorial demonstrates as working:

Any help to get this working would be massively appreciated.
I had to do 2 things to get this working:
1) Follow the tutorial I posted above, this was the last one I tried and it worked
2) In tortoise go settings >> network >> SSH - enter my ssh Client into the box with my credentials:
C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin\TortoisePlink.exe -l svnUsername -pw password
