No problem. When you first submit something, it will ask you the
password, after this the password is saved in
	~/.subversion/auth/svn.simple/somestupidfilehash

At least here it worked like this.

And yes, the invocation
	svn://preining:password@....
is wrong. It doesn't work. (Grm, I have to either move my repository or
recheck out the whole stuff).

Best wishes
