This question about Authentication or Authorisation: Answered

forwarding ASP.NET identity to FosWiki

Hello,

I have developed an application using ASP.NET. User and group accounts are maintained in SQL Server tables. Users are not authenticated via the operating system but individually by using the user and group information in the SQL Server tables.

I would like to use FosWiki to publish OnlineHelp.

When the user clicks on a help link on a web page, he should not be forced to log in a second time in FosWiki. On the other hand, I want to control write permissions depending on the currently loggin-in user.

How can this be achieved?

Is it possible to do an automatic logon in FosWiki by transferring the current user name and password as part of the help URL?

Are there other ways of integrating 3rd party web apps with FosWiki?

Thanks for your help.

The easiest way is to use the ApacheLoginManager with mod_auth_sql or similar.

Yes, there are many ways to integrate 3rd party web apps wink
