SVN + LDAP + Apache in Debian Can't open file /db/txn-current-lock Permission denied

Hello all,

I have setup a subversion server with ldap and apache 2.2.
Ldap works fine but the problem is when I try to import to a repository, I get the following error:

Can't open file /db/txn-current-lock Permission denied

my repos are in /home/svn/repos/

I know I must set the permissions on the directory so that ldap authenticated users can write to it... but thats the part I dont know how to...

Please help me out figuring this one!

I know about chown.. the thing is to what group or/and user, apache? create a svn user?
What user or permissions to set in order to be able to read or write according to the groups set in active directory?
