Greetings,
 
I have an existing MySQL database for my customer portal website which includes 
customers' account info (usernames, and passwords).
 
Now, I am configuring my MediaWiki on another machine in the same LAN for 
customers. How could I make use of the existing customer portal MySQL database 
for my MW user authentication?
 
It seems the extension "Auth viaMySQL" could do a similar job, but it's for the 
same website (same machine), requires special login/logout script files for the 
website, and does NOT tell where/how to connect the existing database.
 
What's the trick to use this extension for a MW on a different machine?  Or, is 
there another way to do user authentication over MySQL?
 
Thanks in advance,
Ross
