linking our product signups to vBulletin signups

[heidikay]

My company is developing a web-based application where users will have accounts that they create through us and that we manage. We would like only people with accounts on our system to be able to post to our vBulletin board, and have a single sign-on that works for both using our product and posting to the board.

Does vBulletin support this? If so, how would this work?

Thanks,
Heidi

The easiest way would be to have your webbased application validate users against the vBulletin database. Standard vBulletin does not have an option for external authentication.

The best place to ask how to do this would be on vbulletin.org, probably some examples already exist.
