I answered a similar question for someone in my webhost forum with regard to bridging to phpBB. This may or may not work for you. Also the help was for 2 dB on the same server. If you need help dealing with different servers, you either must wait for someone else here to respond, or contact your webhost. If anything, you could download your tables from one dB and then upload it to the other one. If you don't have access to phpMyAdmin, I can't help you further.

It's possible to move/copy tables across your dBs.

- Backup both of them.
- In phpMyAdmin, go to the dB you want to copy FROM.
- Select a table.
- Click on the Operations tab.
- Use the copy function and select the dB to copy TO. Keep the same table name. An easy way to do that is to use the pre-filled name from the Move function.
- Select Structure and Data, and then Go.

It might make sense to copy things over from the dB with fewer tables for you to have to copy over.

Sorry, I haven't done the bridging myself.

As the integration section in the docs say: you mustn't have them on different databases, it's mandatory for most intergation that they are on the same db. TranzNDance is right, in fact he's suggesting to move the coppermine tables to the database your bbs is on - that's the way to go. If you have a fresh install of coppermine (without any uploads or only a few), you may find it easier to install coppermine from scratch on the same db your bbs uses.
Please understand that there can be only very limited support for wbb, as it is commercial software that is rarely used outside Germany, that's why none of the supporters owns a copy - no saying if there can be another workaround.
