Hi everybody,

i heard of the new authentification plugin that is in cvs and in 
1.4.beta6. i'm using 1.4.beta6 for my projects.

my plans are to make mediawiki use the authentification of apache 
(.htaccess) so that people do not need to log-in again. 

unfortunately i cannot find enough infos on this class AuthPlugin to make 
it work. i already have written a extensions/cpAuth.php but the trouble 
is that it seems to be ignored by mediawiki, even after setting this 
lines in LocalSettings.php:

// Auth using cpAuth:
include('extensions/cpAuth.php');
$wgAuth = new cpAuth();

The only documentation i have for this interface i found here:
http://mail.wikipedia.org/pipermail/mediawiki-cvs/2004-November/004971.html
http://mail.wikipedia.org/pipermail/mediawiki-cvs/2004-November/004973.html

is there any other docs around on this? any other people working on 
extensions to work with the class AuthPlugin?

once i get this to work, i'm ready to provide documentation on how i made 
it work.

thank you very much in advance,

best regards,

Damir Perisa
