pyForum and single sign-on

Hi,

I'm considering using pyForum on a web2py powered website. The website is going to have multiple web2py applications with a single sign-on.

Is it possible to integrate pyForum with the sign-on system of the website?

As far as I understand different web2py applications can have a single authentication system via sharing a common database which srores authentication specific information.

If that is so, I assume pyForum needs to use two databases: the common one storing the user data, and a database for the forum content. Is that feasible?

Or is there another way?

Thanks.

did you get anywhere with this?
Pyforum uses a custom authentication so I imagine it would be harder than for a app with the builtin web2py auth.
