This plugin lets ikiwiki prompt for a user name and password when logging into the wiki. It also handles registering users, mailing passwords, and changing passwords in the prefs page.

It is enabled by default, but can be turned off if you want to only use some other form of authentication, such as [[httpauth]] or [[openid]].
