Help with login outside VB

[nektar]

Hi!

I have a competition running on my web page which requires the users to login. The login information is currently checked across a phpbb2 forum. Then new cookies are set outside phpbb2 to remember the user is logged in. Actually what I do is just check if the login information is correct from the phpbb2 forum. That's all.
No I'm trying to make it work for vb3 but I don't know how although I have read several posts.
Your help would be very much appreciated.

Here is the code for phpbb2 I'm currently using ($userid,$pwd are taken from user input from a login forum):

function CheckUserLogin($userid, $pwd) {

	global $dbaseUserData, $User, $useEncryption;

	// if encryption enabled encrypt the password
    if ($useEncryption == TRUE) {
	  $pwd = md5($pwd);
	}

	// Default the login to false.
	$User = new User;
	$User->loggedIn = FALSE;
	$User->usertype = 1;

	$link = OpenConnection();
	if ($link == FALSE) {
	  return FALSE;
	}

	$userquery = "SELECT * FROM phpbb_users where  username = \"$userid\"";
	$userresult = mysql_query($userquery)
		or die("Query failed: $userquery");
	if ($userline = mysql_fetch_array($userresult, MYSQL_ASSOC)) {
	  if ($pwd == $userline["user_password"]) {
		// The passwords are equal. Log the user in, and update the 
		// data.
		$User->userid = $userid;
		$User->pwd = $pwd;
		}
 } 
		return TRUE;
	  }
	}
	CloseConnection($link);
	return FALSE;
  }
