afaik there's no converter available to convert from ipb user db to coppermine standalone user db. I recommend removing everything on your IPB except the login/logit mechanism and removing the link from your IPB board page to evberything related to the board. If properly done, users won't notice they're actually authentifying towards IPB, but will get the impression the login/registration process was part of coppermine.
About how many IPB users are we talking? Please post a link for details.

so there is no easy way ?
so if i i did recreate the users database for coppermine would i loose my links or would anything stuff up
http://forums.fonts4eva.net is the site Warning: gallery not work safe, contains nudity

[edit gaugau]
I added a warning. Please do so in the future when posting a link

registering 7 users on the standalone coppermine user table (without  integration) should be piece of cake. I thought we were talking about 700 users or so  ;)

disable bbs integration by undoing the changes you have made in include/init.inc.php when you enabled bbs integration. Your coppermine gallery should be standalone again. Log in with the username and password you created when installing coppermine, then create the users.
