[Mediawiki-l] Re: External Login Session Handle

[Chris Earle (CBL)]

Hi all,

I am also thinking of doing something along these lines -- a frontpage/front
end to the wiki login.
I have seen the various help files/meta entries on Authentication by LDAP,
Remote Webserver, and Apache, but I'm not clear that these are what I
actually want to do (nor do they appear that easy to implement.)

All I want to do is pass the login details through session cookies to my
wiki system.  Can I just post the login details to the Userlogin script?

Direction appreciated,


Chris Earle

Subject: External Login Session Handle


Hello guys,

I did some research and I am still having trouble with login via Oracle.
So I came up with different solution.

I just set up a seperate login page and let the user login from there.

This login page is checking user info against Oracle DB.
If user information exsists in Oracle, then it will proceed to Wiki.

Now, how can I integrate user session/cookie with Wiki?
Where should I look into?
Can anyone give me any suggestion?

Thank  you for your time and help.

Regards,
