I have a Trac installation (0.11b1 on Linux) that's working quite
well, but I haven't opened it up to the public for posting. I was
pointed in the right direction for doing so per
http://groups.google.com/group/trac-users/browse_thread/thread/d8a09fd4616167de/58c95f16541b1bcd?lnk=gst&q=esterbrook#58c95f16541b1bcd

But I also have a phpBB3 installation that's working quite well and
has been accumulating accounts and posts since before I set up Trac.

So now my concern is having two sets of accounts for the same site.
Maybe I could migrate the discussion forums to Trac? I found
http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/DiscussionPlugin and it looks like a great
start. But there's a big enough gap between phpBB3 and it that I think
I'm staying with phpBB3 for now. See various RFEs at
http://trac-hacks.org/report/9?COMPONENT=DiscussionPlugin

I'd like to avoid having users create two accounts. It seems like
options include at least:

-- A Trac Hack I don't know about.

-- My own hack to have Trac read another database for user logins (but
within the same server, so maybe not too bad). I don't know if this is
feasible as Trac may wish to write information back. Then again, maybe
I can take that over too.

-- Perhaps a hacky cron job that copies account information from the
forums db to the Trac db.

Does anyone have experience or advice on linking Trac accounts to
another web application on the same site?


Thanks,
Chuck
