Your best bet is to create an IPasswordStore implementation.  This way 
you can configure the account manager plugin to use your backend and 
have your backend grab user/password info from the phpBB installation.

As I have never used phpBB before, I don't know how hard this will be, 
but assuming that all phpBB does is store username/password hashes in a 
DB that you have access to, then it'll be easy.

The documentation for the IPasswordStore interface is here:

http://trac-hacks.org/browser/accountmanagerplugin/trunk/acct_mgr/api.py#L15

Also, if you have any questions, hop on #trac.  There are generally 
multiple people there that have had experience with implementing 
IPasswordStore.
