Hello guys,
I am looking for some solution or `howto ideas` on same login details on several installations of vbulletin (it can be understood as kind of SSO). I mean situation that I would have several installations of vbulletin (probably on the same server) and user would have one set of login details for all instalations

Have anyone solved it ever or do you have any idea how can it be done?

I will appreciate any useful ideas!

Thanks a lot

"Half" a solution was posted here.

Dismounted: Thanks a lot for your post!

Using views is one of possible ways how it could be done - at least I hope :-) I have to check out which tables should be viewed and if it would work. I want keep separated user statistics for each forum.

Another way can be to create external user tables (with same structure as originals) and improve login functions that will authorize users against these external tables. But this solution is more complicated, requires hacking into original code and probably has no advance against views.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
