Need recomendation on Wiki software

[fromeast2west]

I'm working on a project at work where a Wiki might end up being the best tool. (It's basicly a technical glossary that will span multiple departments and offices around the country).

I think I can get someone in IT to set up an Apache box, but it looks like there's a lot to choose from for the PHP/wiki.

Is there anything I should look out for, any recommendations you have?

Thanks,
S.

Mediawiki is pretty popular....I've used it a little...but I generally don't like wiki's, so I'll let you decide...

MediaWiki + mysql is a pretty easy setup.

+1 for MediaWiki.

If however your company wants to end up setting an enterprise level wiki for all the users, I'll suggest - Confluence (http://www.atlassian.com/software/confluence/).
Absolutely awesome performance, features and ease of use.

I like TWIKI.
there's a virtual machine preconfigured so if you're running it on that it's easy to try out and setup.
