[wikka-community] replacing wikka-login/authentication with apache htaccess/htusers

[Will Woodhull]

This question seems to be the same as

       "Does anyone know how to extract the cleartext passwords from
Wikkawiki?"

I would hope that if there is anyone who has cracked the Wikkawiki security
scheme, they will keep their mouth shut.

Good security is a bother. It always keeps you from doing things the easiest
way.
