Activate SVN Server sor ssh+svn:// connections on Mac OS X 10.6 Server

Question

I have Mac OS X 10.6.8 Server. It has svn 1.6.17 installed. So I installed the latest version (1.7.8) using macports: sudo port install subversion.

Now, if I type svnserve --version in my terminal window I get the new version: 1.7.8. However, if I remotely check that the new svnserver is active with:

ssh username@host svnserve --version

I get the old version 1.6.17. Also, it seems that I have to manually add the new version to each user's path.

How can I activate it SVN Server globally on this machine?

Thanks,

Nick,

macports only updates the .profile PATH. You need to add the same PATH string to the local or global .bashrc file.
