Hello,
First, my apologies if this is the wrong place to ask or if this question has been asked before.
I am looking to implement Wiki in a corporate setting. Has any work been done to integrate the Wiki user accounts and permissions with a directory services, such as Active Directory? If so, could some friendly person give me a reference or a link?
Thanks in advance,
J Wolfgang Goerlich

http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/LDAP_Authentication is the first hit on Google for the search "mediawiki active directory"
There is an LDAP authentication plugin which is reasonably widely used; as far as I know it ought to work with Active Directory.

I've made a very simple implementation for our site. It works and is simple.
Look at includes/AuthPlugin.php
Many thanks for the advice. I will get on integrating MediaWiki with Active Directory.
