Soon (my guess is a few months), but not yet, PhpWiki will be able to
handle
authentication/login by itself. (Most of the code is there, but I don't
think it's fully working yet.)
In your case, since you want people to have to log in both to read and
edit
the wiki, you can use apache's authentication facilities to control access
to your wiki (the same as you would to control access to any static web
pages.)
There's a bunch of different ways to set that up depending on what
you want to use as a user/password validation database. (Refer to the
Apache docs). Here's a few places to start:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/howto/auth.html
http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/ (look at mod_auth*)
If you want the apache-verified username to be used by PhpWiki (e.g
for logging of author names in the page histories) then a little
hacking of PhpWiki code might be required. When you get that far,
post a note to the list, and someone will be able to help you.
