Hey all,
Thanks much for the recommendations. I'll check them out.
We don't need fine grained control over access; basically
admins that can modify content and the public who cannot.
But right now DocuWiki is sounding good, and I'd rather, for
some strange reason, not use a DB, although I can't justify
that in any rational way. I mean, MySQL is already on the machine.
Thanks again!

A while back I set up a TikiWiki for a client. I think I liked it better
than any of the other wikis I've messed with. But honestly, I didn't get
to use it much and I've only ever used Mediawiki to any real length.
Definitely give it a look, though.

Hey all,
I'm looking for a good Wiki to maintain documentation on a large
commercial web site that is always growing.
DokuWiki is the only one I've installed and used at any length, so
before
I just use that one again I'd like to hear from the peanut gallery what
other suggestions you'd have.
Remember, this will be for end user documentation for a large
commercial
CMS type system, something site admins will go to for information on
site
features, updates, etc.
Let the shouting begin!
Thanks, all, and a very happy eating-charred-dead-bird-flesh day to you
all!!!

Well, I've used DocuWiki and bit new to MediaWiki which I think
WikiPedia
uses.
MediaWiki uses a MySQL DB were as DocuWiki is a tree dir structure kind
of
thing.
I actually prefer DocuWiki but maybe thats because I didn't setup
MediaWiki
correctly.
Cacti uses DocuWiki by the way and I personally avoid DB usage if
possible.
I think its easier to corrupt a DB then it is to corrupt a filesystem.
However I'm unsure of how scalable a pure file system based Wiki is, I
think
if you put it on a mirrored disk with a decent cache on the Raid
controller,
you'll be fine performance and DR wise.
If its Linux, then MD based (software raids) works pretty well.
