I would like to check the possilbity about encrypt passowrd of authz users that we configured in svnserve.cfg

I have installed SVN in REHL9.4. Configure password at SVN/.../respository-name/config/

  • authz: store end-user creation
  • passwd: store password of user svn
  1. How to encrypt password in host /config/passwd?
  2. Subversion authentication, How to encrypt password that stored in end-user config file? or any possible way we can provide address access (svnHomeUrl=svn://.../respository-name/Branch) to user to svn beside this clear text password? i mean could be AD , or access by certificate.

  • Have you checked the free Subversion book? It has extensive documentation of the different server and authentication options like Basic Authentication (which should work with hashed passwords out-of-the-box), TLS client certificate authentication, SSH-based authentication, LDAP and many more.

    How do the authentication options I've linked to not address your requirements? You said you either want to hash/encrypt the password on the server, or you want to use an alternative authentication method like certificate-based authentication. Both is possible if you use SVN over Apache with the mod_dav_svn module. HTTP Basic Authentication allows you to only store a password hash on the server. And TLS client certificate authentication is, well, certificate-based authentication.
