[pmwiki-users] htpasswdForm

[Sameer Kumar]

"Most certainly, the local/authuser directory itself is missing..."

 

Does this mean that I should create this directory manually?

 

Further on the issue of single-signon and authentication:

Is there a recommended method of logon between the following:

1.      AuthUser with hardcoded userid's and passwds in the wiki

2.      AuthUser with LADP access for existing userids + passwords

3.      Single-Signon with mod_auth_sspi in apache

 

I am running Apache on Windows XP and my understanding is that each of
these options are possible for my setup. 

I will appreciate any help on making this decision.

 

Thanks.

You're almost done ;-)

The warning messages (deliberatly not buried) indicate that the recipe

couldn't write the destination files. Most certainly, the

local/authuser directory itself is missing...

 

The Cookbook/SingleSign-On recipe is a way to "overload" PmWiki's

alternate authentication scheme based on the HTTP Basic authentication

protocol, using Windows authentication data thru compatible browsers:

This mostly relies on server configuration and is transparent for

PmWiki itself.
