Installing and Configuring Apache HTTPD
   01. Download Apache HTTPD  https://www.apachelounge.com/download/
   02. Download Subversion Apache Modules  https://github.com/nono303/win-svn/tree/1.14.0
   03. Extract the downloaded .zip files
   04. Copy the extracted Subversion files to the desired location, for example C:\Program Files\Subversion

   10. Click OK
   11. Open a command prompt and run svn --version to confirm the Subversion executables are configured in the system path correctly
   12. Copy the following files from the extracted Subversion directory to the Apache installation directory specified below:
         Apache /modules
         mod_dav_svn.so
         mod_authz_svn.so

   14. Find the following lines LoadModule dav_module modules/mod_dav.so and uncomment them by removing the # at the beginning
         LoadModule access_compat_module modules/mod_access_compat.so
         LoadModule dav_module modules/mod_dav.so
   15. Add the following block to the file:
         LoadModule dav_svn_module modules/mod_dav_svn.so
         LoadModule authz_svn_module modules/mod_authz_svn.so
         ≪VirtualHost svn.i12bretro.local:80≫

   02. Edit httpd.conf in a text editor
   03. Find both the authnz_ldap_module and ldap_module and make sure it is enabled by removing the # at the start of the line
         LoadModule authnz_ldap_module modules/mod_authnz_ldap.so
         LoadModule ldap_module modules/mod_ldap.so
   04. Add the following to the Location block created earlier for svn.i12bretro.local to enable LDAP authentication
         Order deny,allow
         # Basic authentication with LDAP against MS AD
         AuthType Basic
         AuthBasicProvider ldap
         # AuthLDAPURL specifies the LDAP server IP, port, base DN, scope and filter
         # using this format: ldap://host:port/basedn?attribute?scope?filter
         AuthLDAPURL "ldap://i12bretro.local:389/DC=i12bretro,DC=local?sAMAccountName?sub?(objectClass=user)" NONE
         # The LDAP bind username and password
         AuthLDAPBindDN "[email protected]"
         AuthLDAPBindPassword "Read0nly!!"
