[Phpwiki-talk] PhpWiki internal authentication mechanism?

[Robert D. <rob...@ya...>]

Hello,

I have another security-related question. This mailing list 
doesn't appear to be archived, and reading through the FAQ,
change log, and index.php, I wasn't able to resolve this 
question, so here it is.

How does one set up PhpWiki internal authentication?
(Assuming that there is such a thing.) 

I've tried some permutations of the settings in index.php --
specifically ALLOW_USER_LOGIN, ALLOW_BOGO_LOGIN, and
REQUIRE_SIGNIN_BEFORE_EDIT. It seems that setting these to
true, false, and true, respectively, would invoke authentication.
But how are usernames and passwords assigned? I don't see
a "Create User" or whatever on the wiki administration page.

Can username/password pairs be created by some MySQL commands?
There are some comments about that in index.php, but they
seem to apply specifically to IMAP authentication.

I'm trying to figure out a simple scheme for assigning
usernames and passwords. Any advice that you might have is
greatly appreciated. PhpWiki rocks! Thanks for creating
such a great project.

Robert Dodier
