So after a good couple months of work (see: procrastinating) I've finally got MOST of the work done on the Stormfist website. The website uses PunBB for Forums, User Management, Session Management, Access based on User Group, Private Messaging (A PunBB Mod), and much more to come in the future. The website is for a World of Warcraft guild I founded, but now just keep the website up and going since all interest in WoW has faded.
I just thought I would show it off, the integration of PunBB to the website was fantastically easy, it took some hacking, mostly of extern.php but it wasn't bad at all. More to come in the future, I figure as I add more features, I'll post them here.

I just thought I'd follow up on this, in case anyone else is Interested in doing exactly as I inquired. I went over to Punres and found the following thread: http://www.punres.org/viewtopic.php?id=1328
Take a look at it, works well, however Some additional programming is needed to prevent caching issues with MediaWiki. good luck!

Aye, I have searched this forum, I've found a few references to it and a file auth_punbb.php, however nothing leads up to anything else. I've also ran a google search for auth_punbb and they all lead me back to here 
Hey Folks,
I've done numerous searches across these forums as well on Google in reference to using PunBB's User's from MySQL DB to authenticate with MediaWiki. As far as I can tell it looks as if there is something out there already, however when I try to visit the Punres site, the site is down, can access the wiki, however nothing is on there in regards to integrating the two. If you have any information or help, by all means lend me a hand!
