Going from the online version of the book, this was included in Step 3 here: http://www.djangobook.com/en/1.0/chapter06/ ("Also uncomment all the lines in the MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES setting tuple...")

Nevertheless it seems like I've seen a lot of people post here with trouble in this area, so I'm trying to understand why. Perhaps step 3 in Chapter 6 should be more specific (list exactly what should be in MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES), or split into two steps, since it covers both ensuring that INSTALLED_APPS and MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES are set properly. But even that wouldn't address whatever caused you to have to copy the templates -- I don't understand what happened there.
