Hi, I am having this problem with my wiki (http://indlinux.org/wiki) , where if two usernames login from same IP address, the usernames get autoblocked. what could be the solution? do i have some settings wrong? typically to prevent spam, we have captcha implemented at login time.

That's how the autoblocker works. You can effectively disable it, should you wish, by setting $wgAutoblockExpiry = 1 in LocalSettings.php, which causes all auto-blocks to expire after one second.

How did you get the captcha to work? It looks great.. I'd like to do the same.
MediaWiki 1.5.2
It's currently not possible to use a template tag within another template tag because the parser will inturpret the first two closing curly brakets it encounters...
I am curious if anyone has modified the parser to allow this to happen, perhaps with an escape character or enclosing the embedded template tag withing a character ...
Is this something that has been done?

I believe this has actually been fixed in the CVS head ("1.6devel") code, as running on Wikipedia et al. No escaping or other nasty hacks required, just a change to the way in which the parser matches the braces. It may be that the changes were too major for anyone to have ported them to the "stable" 1.5 branch, but clearly it is possible...

Oh, and if you want to see *how* it was fixed, it looks like it was the patch attached to http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3526
