Hi all,
I have recently--and apparently successfully--implemented Drupal authorization for my Mediawiki installation with the AuthDrupal extension. (Yes, I've tested it with a user account that is not my own that had not previously been used to log in to the wiki--ever--in an environment that hadn't been used to access the Drupal site either.)
But I'm having trouble with the .htaccess file to foreclose access to Special:Userlogin. The directions suggested by the INSTALL file at http://wiki.case.edu/CaseWiki:External_Authentication just didn't do it for me.
From Apache documentation, I gather this should be entirely unsurprising. Unfortunately, I never have been able to figure anything out using that documentation--and this was no exception.
So here's my setup: I have a Drupal installation at http://www.parts-unknown.org/drupal6/ and a MediaWiki installation at http://www.parts-unknown.org/mediawiki/ . The Drupal installation is login-only and it would actually be fine if people hitting http://www.parts-unknown.org/ were automatically redirected to the wiki as long as access to the Drupal site remains possible. At the very least, I would like to disable Special:Userlogin.
How do I do this?
Thanks!
