Subversion + NginX

Server: Ubuntu 10.04 with 1 site hosted using nginx all up and running.

Is there anything special needed to get subversion working with nginx? I see all these tutorials with apache "Access via WebDAV protocol to Subversion-aware Apache 2 web server "

Following various guides and upto the mkdir but try to import files / or connect to the /home/repo/project "Server refused connection" error always.

Any tips / guides / how you did it info would be great!

Thanks

Dave
