[Phpwiki-talk] User Authentication?

[Bob P. <bo...@pe...>]

I've just installed PHPWiki and I'm testing it and trying to configure
it. The main trouble that I am having is getting user authentication to
work the way I want it to work. The docs that I have found are not clear
on how to configure user authentication. 

What I would like is for the wiki to always ask for a user id and
password. If the user id is new then accept the password as that users
new password (maybe ask for the user to reenter it to make sure it was
entered correctly) and from then on always require that user id and
password. It *looks* like you should be able to configure PHPWiki to do
that, the flags seem to be there, but I can't get it to ever ask for a
password, but I can get it to fail when any user tries to login :-)

So, I guess my question is, can I get the behavior I want, or something
close to it? And, how do I set up that configuration? 

I down loaded it from source forge yesterday so I believe it is the most
current version. 

I'm running Debian/Testing (I'm not using the version of PHPWiki that is
in Debian/Testing, it seems to be out of date and installs in a manner
that makes it unusable.) with a 2.4 kernel, and using db4 while I'm
testing PHPWiki.

		Thanks!
