Hello,

I have a huge database of users in a FUDforum based forum.

Now I want to allow all those users (if they aren't banned or something like that) to use a database application I've created. To be able to do this, I need the following:

- A way to read the FUDforum cookie. If a users logs in to FUDforum and stores a cookie, then my database application should read this cookie, too, to auto-login the user (I just need the login name of the user which has been logged in using the cookie information).

- A way to allow the user to login into the system, if not already done (user specifies username/password on my database application). This way should also set the cookie to login the user into both systems again.

The second thing should be possible with forum_login.php (external_get_user_by_auth followed by external_fud_login) but I don't know how I could do the first one.

Thank you very much in advance
