[pws] Convert old Swiki and authentication
Hi, We have an old swiki with upload directories. Can I somehow upgrade it to the a new Swiki. The newer swikis do not have these directories. Acceptable solutions are: Move/copy attachements to the pages that refer to them Renabling directories in the upload section. We have about a thousand pages and threw years of work so I want an automatic solution. and two: Can I have PAM authentication under Linux ? three: Can I see the user name instead of machine. Most accesses are routed throug a firewall so the name of the firewall is quite uninteresting. -- robin

Theoretically, you can control maximum upload size, but it is not implemented yet. I'm working on something in that direction though. Peace and Luck!

This can be very funny, but it can become quite a waste of space. We had to restrict uploads with a password. Nevertheless it might be nicer to be able to control the maximum upload size. Is this possible in principle?

Re: [pws] swiki spamming
In short, the annoying users are using Swikis just as they are intended! Swikis are a free-form place to collaborate, including the posting of files. The difference is that these guys aren't bothering to get their *own* swiki, and instead are hitchiking on someone else's. Everything you cut from the bad users, you also cut from the good ones. agreed. we could write code that allows to filter only Jennifer Lopez movie clips. I mentioned that just because it might well become worse and I prefer to keep the community open generally. fotos are not as bad, they are not 300 Mb in size.
