Yes; it can be done the same way we do for bugzilla.<br>
<br>
However, we would wind up with the same problem as bugzilla where you<br>
can't get read/view without authenticating -- MoinMoin doesn't have a<br>
separate "login" URL.</blockquote><div><br> I dealt with this for the Computing Services wiki by having 2 versions of the URL, one which forced authentication, and one which did not. the difference was /bin/ versus /pbin/ as a component of the URL. If you clicked "login" on the page it used a magic rewrite to rewrite the current url to force you through the login page; this wasn't the native login feature.<br>

<br>
The root issue here is that if you protect an URL with "basic http<br>
authentication" in Apache, the authentication is mandatory. Does<br>
anybody know how to tell Apache to ask for authentication when<br>
accessing a given URL, but not to report an error if the user declines<br>
to authenticate?<br>
