How do I carry forums across domains?

You will notice these are two separate domains with two different sets of forums EXCEPT the universal forums listed at the bottom. The who's online section lists all the users online on either domain and even the other domains as well.

I think that's what you just mentioned.. If I have read it correctly.

Why the hell can't anyone do this, it is so frustrating.

They have it working and I see this question asked ALL THE TIME. Why can't anyone figure this out with VB 4?

Same userbase, different domains, and some shared forums.

Man this is frustrating.

Domain1.com/forum
Forum Category 1 <-- Forum Specific to this domain
-- Introductions
-- General
-- Lounge
Forum Category 2 <-- Duplicated Category across domains
-- X - Graphix
-- X - Designs
-- X - Source Files
-- X - Resources

However, domain2.com would show only Forum Category 2 on both domains, but not Forum Category 1 from Domain1.com. Basically, 2 different forums apart from one category of forums.

Domain2.com/forum
Forum Category 1 <-- Forum Specific to this domain
-- Members
-- Design Formats
-- RGB Settings
-- Profiling Settings
Forum Category 2 <-- Duplicated Category across domains
-- X - Graphix
-- X - Designs
-- X - Source Files
-- X - Resources

Regards,

Sigh, my dream to have this...
