I can checkout frm my repository, but can't check back in. I get thsi 
error:
vn: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: Can't create directory '/usr/local/svn/db/transactions/1-1.txn': 
Permission denied

I googled to see if I could find an answer, but all I found were posts 
like this:
"Its the rights on your repository"
"Oh yeah thanks, I got it working now"

But no one says what they did to get it working. I see on my 
transactions directory, these rights are set:
rwxr-sr-x 2 lorenzo users 48 Dec 25 10:58 transactions

I changed them to:
rwxrwSrwx 2 lorenzo users 48 Dec 25 10:58 transactions

But I get an error on the write-lock directory. Of course I could just 
go through and change the rights everytime I get a rights failure, but 
I'd rather get a more definitive answer before I botch my repo.
TIA

Here's the answer to my own question. I don't know how I missed this page:
