If the user corresponding to the svnservice has a login shell, which would usually be the system's default dialog shell, the C shell, you could edit /etc/csh.cshrc and put setenv KRB5_KTNAME /home/svn/svn.keytab to make it a system-wide setting (or use the user's ~/.cshrc for a user-only setting). In case the user does NOT have a default shell, I think you should be able to also define a system-wide environmental variable by coding KRB5_KTNAME=/home/svn/svn.keytab; export KRB5_KTNAME into /etc/rc.local (which will be executed at system startup). See "man rc.local" for details. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
