Shared database, only users, possible?

[The Geek]

well - great minds

The only catch I was thinking about is that multiple sights = multiple licenses. Doesnt vb use the license and slat for the password?
If so, couldnt that screw up password replication?

I really dont know - it was the only catch I was thinking of - and this is something I am looking at doing in the next 4 months (multiple sites with 1 userbase)

I'll Install 5 individual forums so I will need 5 licences .

He means the password encryption Eagle

@Geek: well that shouldn't be such a hard problem, in the shared DB you have to store the pw in a normal md5 hash, and then further encrypt it with the different license numbers in each other forum DB.

shouldn't be hard

License number is only used in the cookie for that site i think, not in the database. So this should not be a problem.

This is an old thread, but I am interested in knowing whether or not anyone has ever accomplished sharing databases for multiple forums.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Please disregard. I found more throughout this forum.
