What can this extension do?

This extension adds support for the swekey authentication USB key. When this extension is enabled any swekey owner can choose to secure its login with his swekey. Once secured, the user won't be able to login without his swekey plugged in his computer.

Pre-requisites

This software has been tested in production with MediaWiki 1.13.x. It may or may not work with earlier or later versions, but I'm interested in making later versions work, and I'd be happy to make minor changes to make older, unsupported versions work too.

Installation and Download

1. Download source from http://ftp.swekey.com/mediawiki-swekey-1.13-1.0.1.tar.gz
2. Copy the swekey folder into the extensions folder of your MediaWiki installation.
3. Change the LocalSettings.php file as described below.

Changes to LocalSettings.php

Add the following to LocalSettings.php:

require_once("$IP/extensions/swekey/swekey.setup.php");
