their Windows boxes, and we'd get several support calls per week from people who "can't log into the wiki" because they were adding @companyname.com onto their wiki usernames.
The way we do it on our Mantis bugtracker is to use the LDAP server for all logins. Something like that for MediaWiki would do the job too. One password!
Yes, we use the LDAPAuthentication extension for MediaWiki. But usernames on the login page still must be "foo" rather than "foo@companyname.com". Hence the JavaScript to remove @.*.
