I am working on an Intranet where we are spinning off many wiki's per project. In the forseeable future we might have 5-10 separate instances of the Wiki's.
Because of this I would like to make it easy for people to move between the Wiki's without having to login each time.
A simple mod I just wrote will grab the REMOTE_USER which is their NTACCOUNT on our intranet and use that instead of IP.
I set a flag in LocalSettings to allow me to turn this on|off.
My questions are: is this a good way to do this? Are there better ways? Will this break anything?
Thanks, Chris McIntosh
The list for this sort of discussion is mediawiki-l, which is the list about the software itself:

This question (auto-login to someone's NT login) has been asked a bit recently, and several people have told of their ways to do this; you should find the list archive of interest.
