Outsports.com is built primarily on Coldfusion (Windows 2000/MySQL), with UBB.classic as our community forum. We're considering replacing UBB with vBulletin to gain some functionality, and as part of that migration we'd like to integrate the Coldfusion and vB login & profile modules so that registration / login / logout for the site will register / login / logout that user on the discussion board simultaneously, and clicking a member's Profile button in vBulletin will display that member's profile in Coldfusion.

In other words, we want the user data to reside on the CFML application database, with vB to look to it for authentication and update. We'd also want to "hide" our users' access to their profile data in vB, to be viewed/modified only via the CFML-based app, and have the CFML app update and maintain vB's memberfiles. A few threads on this forum are on the right track, for example External Authentication hack?, Coldfusion User Tables, Profile Hack.

We have a CFML programmer on board, so we're looking for experienced assistance in spec'ing, writing and implementing changes to the board's php code and mySQL databases.
