I think this list should be a "last resort" for a phpBB question about how to link phpBB authentication with another authentication system, after: Search phpBB sites for plug-ins and add-ons that expose an API to tie phpBB authentication to any authentication Research other common authentication packages for phpBB support, so see if their code can be adapted for your own use. Search phpBB forums / mailing lists and any support channels A general Google for search terms likely to contain what you need. This often requires several tries and some finesse on input for terms as common as "phpBB" and "forum" but an attempt must be made, even if you're sure it will be fruitless... Cuz Google is goddamned smart sometimes. :-) If we tried to answer all the questions for all the monstrosities of software written in PHP (e.g. phpBB), we'd be in real trouble... This list gets enough traffic as it is -- and some of that is admittedly my fault :-) -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
