If session-based passwords (which generally wants to use cookies) isn't
working, you may be able to switch to HTTP-based authentication depending
on the configuration of your PHP installation.  Add the following to 
your config.php:

   include_once('scripts/httpauth.php');

If that doesn't work, you may be able to get PHP to pass the session ID
in a URL with the following (untested):

   $ScriptUrl = '/url/to/pmwiki.php';
   ini_set('session.use_trans_sid','1');
