If you hack around it _might_ work, but that's not really supported.

Not supported at all.

No such thing.

No, and it's still not.

Hi,

how to restrict user rights that by default noone is allowed to edit the
wiki?
I want that only users that are allowed can edit wiki.
I tried to add 

## User Rights
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['edit']=false;

in my LocalSettings.php.

After that I created a new user. But I could edit the wiki.
I use mediawiki-1.5

Thanks, MB

I have the following:

$wgGroupPermissions['*']['createaccount']   = true;
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['read']            = true;
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['edit']            = false;

And that works fine for me. People can browse the wiki, create users and 
edit the page when logged in.

Are you sure your settings arn't overwritten later in LocalSettings.php?

Have you tried using the free "MySQL Administrator" for Windows?

http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/administrator/

I can't remember the details, but I think it actually sets up scheduled
tasks with Windows "Task Scheduler". I suggest you check it out.

Microsoft Windows doesn't have cron jobs in the same fashion; about
the closest thing built into it is Task Scheduler, which is somewhat
unreliable, but could work. The original question was how to back up
the database? One option could be to write a small batch script to
perform the mySQL command-line client line needed to do the export,
then create a scheduled task to run this every so often.

To backup my database server (Win 2000) I have created a batch file with the
mysqldump dos command in, task scheduler then runs this script 4 times a day
and my backup software takes the .sql dump file and moves it of site.
I use this setup for several tables and the while system works very
reliably.

Would this be a good way:

## User Rights
$wgGroupPermissions['user']['upload']=false;
$wgGroupPermissions['user']['edit']=false;
$wgGroupPermissions['user']['move']=false;
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['upload']=false;
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['edit']=false;
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['move']=false;

Well, the CSS files are all there in the source, and people have
successfully made monobook-like skins for Bugzilla (e.g.
http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org) and even LiveJournal (e.g.
http://community.livejournal.com/wikitech/). So it's perfectly doable,
if you know what you're doing; as for "is there a way", though, that
sounds worryingly like you're expecting some kind of magic template to
come along and do it for you, in which case you may be disappointed.
(Someone may already have written a skin for a CMS, like Zope or
something, but I haven't come across it)

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

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.

Hello all,

I posted a message a few weeks back concerning an issue I'm having
troubleshooting external authentication to mediawiki using an existing
cookie from a domain.  I tried some of the suggestions, all to no avail.

It has come to the point where I really need to get it working, and I'm
fairly certain a mediawiki/php "guru" will have little problem getting it to
work, or otherwise informing me that what I'm trying to do won't work.  I
feel like the code is one simple modification from working correctly;  it is
just that I'm not implementing it right with regards to the external
authentication plugin.  

Where might I go about obtaining such assistance? If here is correct, please
feel free to contact me at the address below. I can provide access to the
server and everything. I'll happily compensate for the help if it means that
this hurdle can be overcome in a timely manner!

Thanks!

Thanks, it worked.  (Sorry, I'm slow to respond sometimes :) )

I have another question.  Since upgrading to 1.5.5 from 1.5.2, The line
at the top of the screen reads "Create an account or log in" instead of
the IP address and "talk for this ip".  Can I get it back?

Are you using a Unix-like operating system, such as Linux, or a
Windows-based machine, or a Mac?

Hi:

Let me understand what is meant in setting user rights and
permissions with '$wgGroupPermissions':

* Does this mean that some pages and/or groups of pages
can be set to allow editing by only certain groups or
individuals?

* And can page viewing be limited in the same manner?

* And if the above is so: is it necessary that said pages be
inside certain directories with the write permissions set
accordingly? Or is a 'flat' file model also an option, with
access on a file-by-file ownership basis?

* Also: Was all the above functionality available in v1.4.x
with settings such as '$wgWhitelistAccount' and
'$wgWhitelistEdit', etc.?

Microsoft Windows doesn't have cron jobs in the same fashion; about
the closest thing built into it is Task Scheduler, which is somewhat
unreliable, but could work. The original question was how to back up
the database? One option could be to write a small batch script to
perform the mySQL command-line client line needed to do the export,
then create a scheduled task to run this every so often.
