For an intranet MW installation, it may (or may not

Is there anything for MediaWiki to either (a) pick up their NT logon
automatically or (b) ask for it and then get it verified from whatever
serves authentication? Has anyone gotten this working? I see various
plans mentioned on
mediawiki.org to use NTLM (which I'm not sure how
to set up either). Though nothing about anyone getting NT logons for
use as usernames.
Hi Gerard,
There's also the Plexcel plugin which provides Kerberos Single
Sign-On, fast ACLs and a bunch of other stuff.
