Hi, New list member here. Been using MediaWiki for a while now. If this isn't the list to ask this would someone please direct me to the proper list? Thank you. First, is there any way to use an external user authentication system in MediaWiki. In our case the linux authentication controled by /etc/nsswitch.conf. Second, is there any way to have an RSS feed either in to or out of MediaWiki? I'm thinking of watchlist info for example out going or a CNN feed incoming? Thank you. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chris Johnson |Internet: johnson(a)nmr.mgh.harvard.edu Systems Administrator |Web: http://www.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/~johnson NMR Center |Voice: 617.726.0949 Mass.
