Passwords-Talk

Q What to do if wiki-sessions do not work?

I tried the solution above; and the browser get the sessions. But still I can use authorisation of one wiki for another wiki…

Q Are passwords sent in the clear? What is the method by which passwords are encrypted and transmitted?

Q Is there a way to remove the username field when requiring passwords for a page?

I found a way to do it for the entire wiki but not for individual pages yet. Go to the wikilibd directory and look for the file “Site.AuthForm”. Towards the very bottom of the page you will see a section of code that looks like this:

   "text='''$[Password required]'''%0a(:messages:)%0a(:if enabled 
   InvalidLogin:)* $[Name/password not recognized]%0a(:if:)%0a(:input 
   auth_form:)%0a(:if enabled EnableAuthUser:)$[Name]:(:input text 
   name=authid:)\\%0a(:if:)$[Password]:(:input password name=authpw:)%0a
   (:input submit value='OK':)%0a(:input end:)%0atime=1135895744"

Simply remove the

   "$[Name]: (:input text name=authid:)\\%0a(:if:)"

section on the second line right before the password input.

Q Is there a web admin form for GroupAttributes?action=attr pages? I have a number of group pages and was wondering if there is a web admin form (somewhat like the HtpasswdForm) that would enable me to manage groupattribute passwords for each group easily? Thanks!

Q Why do I doesn’t see any password in my local file for “read” and “edit”, and in spite of that, my wiki is always asking me for a password ?

You seem have used once the ?action=attr . Then, you should again used that way to cancel it.
