Where do subversion svnadmin svn executables live?

My Ultra4 has addons "Subversion" (v1.6.11-readypro-1.0.0) and "WebSVN" (v2.3.1-readypro-1.0.0); subversion appears to work fine when accessed with the Tortioise client or with WebSVN. But if I log in to the NAS via SSH, I can't find svn or svnadmin on the command line/PATH, nor can I find where they live. I need these command to backup the repository. Any ideas where I can find them?

  • Try this:
    which svn
    which svnadmin


    Or this:
    cd /
    find . -mount -name svn
    find . -mount -name svnadmin
  • None of the above find anything. The only things even vaguely svn-like are
    ./usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_authz_svn.so
    ./usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_dav_svn.so

    Is it possible the SVN code is compiled in here and there are no normal SVN executables on there? I don't want to just run apt-get to install svn the hard way since I'll probably get a different version of it. It so long ago; I obviously had the exes at some point but that might have been the previous NAS.
  • This is rather strange for the commands given by fastfwd should have found the binaries you were looking for. Anyway, all of them should live in "/opt/rfw/bin".

  • Got it - many thanks. which doesn't find them because they're not on the path. I think find doesn't because /opt/rfw is a symlink to /c/.rfw

    Oh. Yeah, I included the "-mount" switch so you wouldn't waste time searching outside the OS partition... But I should have realized that Stefan wouldn't use space on the OS partition if he didn't have to. Sorry, eddynas. Glad you found them anyway.
