One login for multiple forums. V3

[icwcorp]

I'm looking for someone that could design a script that allows multiple forums to use a single login system. Multiple domains would have their own forums running but everything, for the time being, would be contained on a single Linux server.

I am still looking for the same thing.

well you could always put them in one massive database instead of seperate ones, and only use one of the user tables (combine them all into one), use prefixes for forums, etc. That might be the lazy/non recommended way though. :P

I was also thinking about this once. It might be possible if you use table prefixes and just parse all queries for " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user and change that to " . OTHER_TABLE_PREFIX . "user
Then again I'm not sure if it would actually work.

It would be possible i think i still have the doc the person had sent me, probelm is it would require a single database and when the forums get LARGE you really run into a problem.

I was thinking about using xml instead but there are some security problems if your not using HTTPS to request and recive the data
