Thanks Rob that's really helpful.
However I've just read on the site that apparently username are not allowed
to include spaces or non-alphanumeric characters... This could cause a
problem for me as we have existing users with some crazy usernames :)
I'll keep on looking in the docs.
Cheers,
Tom

How can I sync up my existing user registration and
login with MediaWiki?
Take a look at the AuthPlugin interface (see includes/AuthPlugin.php).
And finally how can I log the user in via my existing
login script. Do I
have to set a cookie or session?
You *could* see session values directly; you may also find the
AutoAuthenticate hook (see docs/hooks.txt) of use here.
