Any pointers to how to go about that?  Can mailman easily export/make
available its email addresses and passwords for use by Apache?

You could (for example) modify the bin/list_members script to list
passwords or just strip it down and make it get the passwords  - using
the mlist.getMemberPassword(member) method - and produce something
which can be easily processed in a shell script to make an
AuthUserFile file which you would reference from a .htaccess file.

Or you could probably make a single Python script to create the
AuthUserFile file directly.

[Mailman-Users] Authenticate mailman subscribers to wiki

2005-10-29 Thread Nick Urbanik
Dear Folks,

I'm sorry if this has been answered elsewhere, but my search through
the archives hasn't turned anything up yet.

I want to use the same email address and passwords used by mailman to
authenticate users of an Apache 2.x driven web site to particular web
pages.  In particular, I thought I'd set up some Moinmoin wikis for
mailman subscribers for corresponding lists to be able to edit.

Any pointers to how to go about that?  Can mailman easily export/make
available its email addresses and passwords for use by Apache?
