[viewvc-users] Viewvc Permission problem

I am running subversion 1.6.6 on Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid), Viewvc
1.0.9 and apache2 (2.2.14) and LDAP authentication.

I have multiple repositories on my SVN server and it all
working fine, however I am unable to set access control (permissions) on the / root



I created a ‘catch-all’ group
called “admin” and give global access to the group like

[/]
@admin = r 


This give read only access of the / to the root of all repositories
to member of admin group.  When users of
the admin group log-in via https://www.test.com/svn they can view the root of all repository as well as have appropriate
permissions to repositories, (which is want I want).

However when users of the admin group log-in via https://www.test.com/viewvc the
following error message is displayed “Forbidden You don't have
permission to access / viewvc on this server”
Apache error log display “The URI does not contain the name
of a repository” 


If I go directly to the repository like https://www.test.com/viewvc/repo1 
I would be able to view repo1 successfully.
I would like to view the / of all repository using
https://www.test.com/viewvc , 
This is working via https://www.test.com/svn
 
I tried given different groups read access to the root as
instructed in https://docs.rice.edu/confluence/display/ITPUB/ViewVC+Permissions 
Like 


[/]
@admin = r
@developer1 = r
@developer2 = r
@developer3 = r

Unfortunately I still cannot view the / via https://www.test.com/viewvc

What am I doing rough? Can you help? Please
