Wait, I had a problem here, my university seems to have any kind of
cisco transparent proxy which somehow has eaten my subversion-requests
(some strange errors in the client, usually only on commit, update
worked fine), after I moved my server away from port 80 the problem
disappeard. I don't know what they were doing (I am only a student, not
an administrator).

Thats really true, if you have used cvs before, you need round about
5-10 minutes untill you can do all the things an average cvs user does
day by day.
