you can import the accounts to our member database (name, e-mail, and password) using our admin panel, and then when your user log in to your site, set a cookie that contains the username and password (RC4 encrypted) with a path set to " /" . The cookie will be read by the forum and the forum will autheticate the user automatically (against the forum database).
