There is a "LoginShare" module that comes with Kayako eSupport/Support Suite that will authenticate off vB's database. It actually adds a record into Kayako so that the rest of the application runs correctly, but authentication still works off the vB database.
Unfortunately users are not logged into Kayako automatically if they are logged into vB ...they have to enter their vB username/password again at the Kayako login screen, but at least they won't have to register separately.
I actually think that it shouldn't be to hard to get the automatic logging in done via a simple hook/plugin in vB that sets the correct cookie Kayako needs....or possibly including vB's global.php on Kayako's index.php file? not sure......perhaps anyone else has an implementation that works already?
