I guess the machine where the repo is located have an svn installed, 
then use the svn command line there.

Maybe it helps to look for files with the command
$> svn list file:///REOPATH/REPO/


Or checkout everything at this machine with
$> mkdir /space/test-checkout/
$> cd /space/test-checkout/
$> svn co file:///REOPATH/REPO/
