Reverse Authentication

[iwpg]

Hello!

I am having a very difficult time with authentication running on 2 platforms, Vbulletin, and DZOIC Handshakes.

Hoping that someone could come up with a MOD to use dzoic's login credentials (instead of Vbulletin's) based on cookies. Authentication would check dzoic's database, not vbulletin's for proper login.

Example pages:

Many thanks,

Mike

I forgot to tell everyone how it is currently running:

The user will login to the dzoic script, and that stores a cookie for the credentials, and loads the login.php for the forum, and logs the user in for vbulletin.

The issue with this is that changing passwords has been a headache, as well as having 2 different login cookies makes it very difficult to manage. At times, the forum will log the user out because a session or cookie expired, while keeping the user logged into dzoic. This makes the user logged into one, but not the other.
