Both seem rather outlandish to me - there is a word in dutch which is
close to "beglaubigen" - but I guess that is not in common german use -
and it is more to authenticate something like a document or a registration
with a notary.

Ok. Anyone else in favour of this one (or the other one)?

I tried to avoid this situation. :-)

"Authentisierung" and "authentisieren" are the better choice, imho.
"Authentikation" is used as a German word, that's right. But it's not
very common. And I have a problem to find the correct verb for
"Authentikation". How did you translate "to authenticate"?
However, a lot of german people know neither "Authentikation" nor
"Authentisierung". :-)

Well, the guy suggests using "Authentifizierung" as a German
word for "authentication", but "Authentifizierung" means
something like "Beglaubigung" in German, which is definitely wrong
in our context. A possible translation would be "Authentisierung"
which means something like "(gültige) Bestätigung".
Nevertheless, I've used the anglicism "Authentikation" in my original
translation as a more 'direct' translation of "authentication".
"Authentikation" is also a valid translation (I'm using it in my
German Apache book and it passed the publisher's spelling check),
albeit "Authentisierung" maybe a more common translation.
I'm in favour of leaving the current translation, but if people
prefer "Authentisierung", I'll change it.
Comments?
