I am running a password-protected PmWiki for a client. All users are
granted access via Apache basic authentication. I have a group called
"Private" which is used to store information that only my direct client and
I can access (I assigned a read password to the group). However, seeing the
Private group requires re-entry of the user's password, which is a pain.
What magic bits of PHP can I add to config.php so that:
if authorized username is "Neil" or "Bob"
allow access to Private group
else
do not allow access
endif
One solution I can think of is to add an access restriction to Apache:
<Directory "X:/path/to/wiki/Private">
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Private"
AuthUserFile userfile.name
AuthGroupFile groupfile.name
Require group private
</Directory>
But I would much rather have an "all PmWiki" solution.
