Hi Mohit,
if XWiki is on a internal network, you don't really need to protect it
(unless the help contains sensitive information). You can simply let
unregistered users access the wiki and you will not have any login problem.
Regarding the right packages to download, you'd be better off with the WAR
+ XAR distribution (the last 2 links):
http://enterprise.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Download
You should also follow the installation instructions (Jetty is not really
meant for use in production):
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Installation
Good luck!

Thanks Edo for quick reply. its not an intranet
application. Let me
explain what my intention is
i have a full fledged banking web application (say App1) developed in
java using struts 2 hosted on tomcat. Now i am planning to develop a
different web application (App2) help content for my App1. For this i
downloaded xwiki enterprise. Looks like xwiki is hosted on jetty
webserver. Right? Now i want to introduce a hyperlink on some jsp
page on App1 which will take me to my xwiki help application i.e
App2.I am assuming right now App2 will ask me some user credentials
i.e username and password. Right? so what i want to to do here is when
i click on hyperlink it should take me to some servlet lying in App2
with some userid . Then with this user id App2(i.e xwiki application)
again talks to some servlet lying on App1(i.e my banking application)
which checks whether user exist in database or not . if yes it gives
green signal to servlet in xwiki application(App2) and it shows the
home page of wiki help otherwise throw some exception.
Above is the crux of work what i am planning to do.
What i want to know
What are xwiki modules and tools i need to download?
Which xwiki java classes and servlets i need to explore so that i can
proceed in right direction?
how my banking webapplication and newly developed xwiki application
will interact each other?
Can i host xwiki application on tomcat instead of jetty webserver
which seeems to be default server where xwiki application will be
hosted?
How will i get the source code of xwiki application?
which specific developer guide/'topic i need to go thru in detail .
Though i went thru developer guide on xwiki site but could not get
much out of it.
I am in urgent need of this so that i can start upon at
earliest.Thanks in Advance.

Hi Mohit
I am not sure I completely understand what your intention is. But as I
understand it, two solutions come to mind:
1. If it is an intranet application in an organisation you could think
about using LDAP and SSO (xwiki external), which would not exactly
match your example, but can remove the need to login separately.
2. A virtual wiki environment (would probably be used also for 1.)
with all the users on the main wiki. And the xwiki "internal SSO"
activated. So you could create your two applications in separate
virtual wikis and logging in to one would also log you in to the other
application.
Hope this helps
Edo
