phpwiki doesn't currently support authentication logins.  partly because
the developers haven't gotten to it yet and partly because it's not very
"wiki" and has been low priority.  you could probalby do this by setting
up your webserver to authenticate users before they entered the wiki but
i'm not sure how cleanly that would integrate with phpwiki (it would
work though).

if you need a wiki which supports full user authentication natively you
should check out twiki.org which is a perl based wiki mostly used for
intranets.
