A good Wiki for OS X with LDAP authentication.
So as part of my eternal quest to never ever have to deploy services that require their own authentication database, I’ve been poking around for a good Wiki for OS X that can authenticate to Open Directory without too much faffing around.
As my main aim for setting up a Wiki was to provide a space where we could have collaborative documentation, I was quite pleased to run across DokuWiki, and even more pleased when I realised that it had a built in ACL framework that supported LDAP authentication.
If you scroll down to the bottom of the auth_ldap documentation, you’ll see I’ve put in the settings needed to get authentication against Open Directory working.
Works like a charm, and the syntax is easy enough that it is making documentation nice and simple.
Props to Andreas Gohr for such a nice software package.
