I'm interested using MediaWiki as our intranet wiki. Rather than making everyone create a new account, I am hoping to find an easy way to hook the login into our existing LDAP database. One low-tech way to do this is to shell out of PHP and somehow ask UNIX. Has anyone looked into this before?

Note that PHP has an optional LDAP module: http://www.php.net/ldap

Hey Matthew,
Did you ever pursue this? Any feedback to offer? I need to do the same thing, and I'd rather learn from your mistakes than make them myself. ;)
