Maybe I am the only person who gets confused by the many layers of PmWiki
security, or maybe I am the only one who can't find the documentation pages
that answer my questions ...
In either case, I have added a small blurb about "security holes" to
http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/Passwords which I think will be of
particular value to new PmWiki admins, and obvious blather to old hands.
Essentially it advises explicitly setting the "admin" and "attr" passwords
in config.php - even for completely open wikis.
I have not addressed "upload" passwords, because my brain has shut down for
lunch.
