[[!meta title="Can I grant permissions to users based on moira lists?"]]
You can automatically add users to
[MediaWiki groups](http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:User_rights)
based on membership in AFS groups.

1)
[Authenticate users with certificates](http://scripts.mit.edu/faq/129/how-do-i-authenticate-users-with-certificates)

\2) Copy the
 [Moira extension](http://web.mit.edu/scripts/www/mediawiki-auth/Moira.php)
 to `extensions/Moira.php`

\3) Add the following to `LocalSettings.php`:

    require_once('extensions/Moira.php');
    $moiraGroup['your-acl'] = array('bureaucrat','sysop');
    $moiraGroup['other-acl'] = array('ninja');
    # other group configurations

Please note that this code is not supported by scripts. We provide
this only as a convenience to our users. Feel free to modify the
extension to suit your needs.
