It sounds like your requirements may be similar to what we do: Since we fundamentally do the same thing for each client, what I do is set up a new wiki for each new client. This way, when you're searching for a common term (say "statement of work"), you're looking in the specific client's wiki for that info, eliminating 'noise' from other clients. the backend is configured as: wiki.company.com/clientnameA wiki.company.com/clientnameB wiki.company.com/clientnameC ...etc, so that I don't have to mess with DNS for each new client. I also have a 'generic' client template set up, so that on the backend I simply need to duplicate that folder, rename it to the proper client name, and configure wikiconfig.py so that it is accessible. I have a little cheatsheet (on my wiki, of course) to remind of the steps. Moinmoin supports multiple simultaneous authentication methods, I believe. So, for internal users, we authenticate off of Active Directory (all internal employees have access to all client wiki's with no special permissions). For clients, you can configure it so that an admin is required to set up the account on the wiki itself (i.e. client doesn't require an AD account, it can be a standard Moin-style account).
