[GLLUG] How can a Wiki be used?

[Szymon Machajewski]

Andy,

I have to Love Novell so I have no comment.  Having said that I do have
some thoughts ...

Actually I'm familiar with PHP so I simply debugged the code enough to
make dokuwiki work with our eDirectory.  Dokuwiki has instructions on
how it should work, but as expected it didn't.  It had a bug in the
code.

I can share the ldap config for dokuwiki which works for us, but their
docs are good too.

About eDirectory, it seems that Novell is strong in the IDM marked. 
For their new releases of IDM they may allow other ldap servers to run
underneatht it.  This will force the entire system to be standards
based.

Did you have any issues hooking it up to eDirectory? Can you recommend
any resources for using eDirectory for LDAP authentication? Did you find
that instructions for LDAP transferred well to eDir? I've been curious
about doing this for our systems, but fearful that Novell bastardized
LDAP to the point that it wouldn't work well for things expecting a
standard LDAP server.

I've recently experimented with dokuwiki, a wiki styled to be a
documentation system.  I have it connected to eDirectory for
authentication and groups.  

I liked this site: http://www.wikimatrix.org/ 
compare wiki features.
