Integrating Deki WIki with SharePoint as a Document Share
I'm still getting my feet wet on how Sharepoint handles documents and how it is able to extend to link to other datasources. Notes would be very welcomed here.
Integrating Authentication with Sharepoint and Deki Wiki
To integrate authentication with Sharepoint you would follow the steps to integrate Deki Wiki with Active Directory. This will allow the user to login to Deki Wiki using the same credentials that they log into Sharepoint with. The next step is to add NTML support so that the authentication passes through to Deki Wiki and the user is logged in

Do you know if this works with sharepoint 2003, which my organisation has running? Will sharepoint index the pdf / other attachment content?
Thanks!
This would be really nice... hope somebody knows if this is possible or if this is a feature that soon will come?
