I force my staff to authenticate by setting an ACL on the server's
folder so that it doesn't permit anonymous access. That way everyone has
an ID. I do this using OpenWikiNG, so I'm not sure about the original
product.

The bookmarks can be set in your ow.asp file by setting certain
environment variables. You can view the owconfig_default.asp file in
your owbase/ow folder to see what environment gets set up. Most stuff in
the config file can be overridden by simply redefining it after
including owall.asp as I've done.

My ow.asp looks like this:

<%@ Language=VBScript EnableSessionState=False %>
<%
Option Explicit
CONST C_WIKIROOT = "/wikicis" 'An empty string (""), OR
whatever folder the ow folder is installed under
%>

<!-- #include virtual="wikicis/ow/owall.asp" //-->

<%

OPENWIKI_DB = "Provider=sqloledb;Data Source=SQL1;Initial
Catalog=WCGGen;uid=xxx;pwd=xxx"
OPENWIKI_DB_SYNTAX = DB_SQLSERVER ' see owpreamble.asp for
possible values
OPENWIKING_UPDATEDB = 0

OPENWIKI_TITLE = "WikiCIS" ' title of your wiki
OPENWIKI_TIMEZONE = "-07:00" ' Timezone of the server
running this wiki, valid values are e.g. "+04:00", "-09:00", etc.
OPENWIKI_ACTIVESKIN = "blue_and_gold" ' Set to the
directory under /skins that you want to use. (NOT directory "common"!)
OPENWIKI_MAXTRAIL = 9 ' Maximum number of links
in the trail

cWikifyHeaders = 1 ' 1 = wikify headers 0 = do
not apply wiki formatting within headers
cWikifyPageTitles = 1 ' 1 = wikify page titles 0 =
do not apply wiki formatting to page titles
cExternalOut = 0 ' 1 = external links open in new
window, 0 = open in same window
NameArray(8) = "blue_and_gold"
