The situation is this: I have a website that links to a page inside my wiki. Problem is that in order to see this page, you need to be logged in. I don't have the option of keeping this wiki secrete or only letting certain individuals know that I have an unprotected page in my wiki. So then, the goal is to be able to somehow log in into my wiki without using the log in page. Something along the lines of passing certain parameters in the header. Is this possible? Has anyone done something along the lines of my goal? Any help is appreciated.

I can't use media wiki to do the restoration of wikipedia dump into my mysql database. So I use mwdumper, but it doesn't work very well. It inserts first 280,000 pages and not the others. During the execution of the process, it runs slowly, for the first 280,000 pages, because, in my opinion, it works well. Then it begins to go fastly and it ends after little time... The problem is that once the pages it inserts are 280,000, other time 49,000, and everytime I try to do the restoration, this number changed. I think the problem is with mysql, with the management of the tails and the buffer in input, but I don't know what I could do. If someone can help me, please answers to the mail, thanks a lot.
