My problem is that every time I do some operation with an URL like the following one: https://nttt.dttt.com:8443/svn/nttt/Med/trunk I get

Server sent unexpected return value (403 Forbidden) in response to OPTIONS".

The user and password I supplied was correct, so no problem there.

I don't know where the problem lies, I don't know if it is the server(on witch I don't have any control) or my Tortoise client.

I don't think it is TroitoiseSVN. The problem most likely is that you don't have access to full tree or all HTTP operations. Try accessing these URLs in your browser:

https://nttt.dttt.com:8443/svn/nttt

https://nttt.dttt.com:8443/svn/nttt/Med

https://nttt.dttt.com:8443/svn/nttt/Med/trunk

And see if you get any 403 errors. Otherwise you will need to talk to your system administrator to fix the rights.
