Title: Wondering if this is possible?
Post by: n0esc on October 18, 2003, 05:27:46 am

I have a main .com site that contains my forums as well as a limited portal page to the forums located on one domain using Invision Power Board and IPDynamic Lite.

I also have a .net site that I would like to use for members personal pages as well as hosting of the gallery.  

I want to know if it would be possible to still use the Coppemine BBS integration across the two domains so users do not have to have two accounts.

I have tried several different combonations of setting this up, and either it refuses to let anyone login, direction users to site.com/forums/www.site.net instead of the correct login page


Any help or suggestions would be appreciated

I think anything is possible, but this sounds rather difficult to get to work since the two domains would have to use the same mysql DB and the same cookie.  I think the bridge files would have to be changed to get the cookies to play nicely, since they come from two different domains.

Well I can set it up to use the same MySQL database without problem and the gallery actually works that way quite fine... even though it is physically located on another server

If I enable the bridge, it will not allow anyone to login... CLicking on login results in the URI of the .net site being appended to the end of the URL of the login script after clicking Login

I believe this is the case because the location of the forums is indicated by a seperate domain, not a sub/folder of the same site.
