maintaining 2 logins and databases with vBulletin

[mytown.ie]

Hi There,

I have purchased and installed vBulletin on http://www.mytown.ie/forums.
You will see that the main version of my site http://www.mytown.ie already has a login area, this allows users to login to access certain features on the site.

When a new user registers with mytown.ie, they will also be registered on vBulletin (my programmer can change the mytown.ie registration script to create entries in both DB tables). The problem is when a user registers on mytown.ie/forums - I also want them to be registered on the main area of mytown.ie - creating a DB entry here. Similarly when a user logs-in to mytown.ie/forums, they should be logged-in to the main area of the site.

I am sure that other sites that have added vBulletin will have had a similar problem, and would therefore appreciate your feedback.

Thanks,

Garry
