Thanks for your quick response, Dominique.
Currently, when I arrive at the homepage, I see a default PmWiki login
form.
How can I replace this with a customized login form which would offer a
link for registration of a new user?
How and where do I create the new user registration form?
Also, please see my response below to your previous questions:

Yes, the recipe handle only the files, not the full directory path to
them.

IMHO, you should choose the method according to your
"exploitation-context". The answer to some questions like below may
help you to decide:
Are you dealing with one our more operating system?
Ans: It would be either Windows or Mac OS.
How are your user authenticated on it/them?
Ans: We logon into our Windows Network (WinServer2003) through Windows
logon. I am not sure how the Mac OS users logon.
In an heterogeneous enviroment, are the all the different auth
mecanisms synched together?
Ans: I think they are. That is how we share all the network drives.
Is there a "politically-correct" way of leading user authentication in
your organization?
Ans: I don't know. What does that mean?
How many users are planned?
Ans: Around 30. It would not be a big deal to manually create the users
if we chose to.
Do they really need to be authenticated individually?
Ans: Yes, it is important to document the authors for the wiki to be
successful.
