Using the User DB table for another application

Hi,
I need some help. I have the lastest version or the forums (3) running on my server and I have a large database of users. I am now developing a new application but I only want to have ONE login, and basically use the login information and users from the forum. I presume this is possible.

I can see the information in the users table in the database. My question is really how are the sessions done when a user logs in? I'm pretty new to the PHP code for the forum and haven't done any hacks to it yet, so wondered if anyone could point me in the right direction.

Can I just query $_SESSION['username'] or something like that? Would be nice if it was that simple :ninja:

Thanks,
Tom
