MediaWiki automatic login using htaccess
Dear All,

(I should have asked this in my previous mail.) I am trying to add a wiki to
an existing website which has sections that require a login using apache
.htaccess and password files. I would like it so that if a user logs into the
site then they also login to the Wiki automatically. i.e. Each user would not
need a separate login for both the wiki and the htaccess restricted areas of
the site. Has anyone tried to do something similar with MediaWiki and if so
how did you go about it? I have looked in the User.php file, but I cannot see
an obvious way to do this.

Thanks for any help,
