trac [0] provides a wiki written in python, can use a postgres
database (and maybe MySQL? i forget, because i prefer postrgres), and
can rely on any form of authentication your web server can offer (if
you're using apache, that's just about anything).  As a bonus, if
you're doing a software project, you get a free ticketing system and
revision control browser/frontend thrown in.

if you want to refuse page editing without logging in, that's easy to
do from the trac-admin command line tool.
