if password encryption was the same in both tables, u might be able to use a mysql view to do it by replacing all references to punbbs user table with a view created from yours and the punbb user table. just a thought (i am a total novice, so only take this as a sujestion)

Topic: Traditional intergration method (1 replies, posted in PunBB 1.2 modifications, plugins and integrations)
I have a website which already has a system for logging in and logging out users.
I would like to intergrate the forum so that users who login to my site are automatically logged into the forum.
Could you tell me how is this task traditionally handled and is punbb constructed in such a fashion as to make this easily possible.
