Of course you could use mod_rewrite to have /forums/California only display the California category. But a user just have to click "Forum Home" for example to see all categories.

My approach would be to create those directories as symlinks, then check in init.php which URL is being used to view the board and then dynamically make the user a member of the group who has got access to a specific category.

BUT this would only work for registered members and I am not sure if it is OK with the vBulletin license (I tend to think that it would not be allowed with a single license)

I didn't realize this might not be allowed with a single license. Why do you think it would unacceptable?
