Hello,
I was trying to figure out how to work with Central Auth but the page
on the wiki is kind of small and not clear.
I have four wiki's all running on the same server with mediawiki
1.16alpha and mysql
All four wiki's have a own database
main
intern
llam
kook
Is it needed for me to merge them all in one database?
No.
Although if you have a few users, is easier to have a shared users tale.
CentralAuth was designed for wikimedia, it may have problems outside.
I also understand that I need to create a new database
with the data
for the Central Auth and run the sql on that database, or should I run
that on all the databases?
The central auth table shall be common to all wikis. You don't create a
CentralAuth table per wiki, that would defeat its purpose.
