Just to add a bit to the potential mix, I run a PmWiki farm with several
wikis. Two of those wikis are protected by Apache Basic Authentication
using an htpasswd file that I maintain "by hand".
However, once inside the BA, I use PmWiki AuthUser to assign the
usernames to authorization groups. Within the wikis, I control access
based on authorization group. This has proved to be very flexible.
On the non-BA protected wikis I use straight AuthUser assigning both
login accounts and authorization groups inside the wiki.
