Common Login for DCRP and PrinterSpot?

I don't know how much work this would involve, but it would be a neat and useful idea to be able to maintain the same login for both forums (kind of like MSN Passport). It would probably generate more traffic for both too. :)

I know it can be done because it's been done for other vBulletin forums, but beyond that, I don't know the logistics.

It'd be just a matter of merging the user databases and then having both forums call to the same location.

If someone can figure out how to do that, then I might consider it!

It shouldn't be too hard really. You could probably insert a call to a separate user database that they both have in common. It'd be in your config.php files but I can't think of how exactly it'd be done, since you'd want to maintain your other tables separately.

The customer table would be extracted and generated as a separate database, rather than just fields within the current db.

I saw such a forum modification on vBulletin.org (the official hacks site), so if I find it again, I'll link you to it.
