Use same users from another msql database

[mauro]

Hello, i have a Question and i hope someone can help on this.

I have two databases on my domain. 1.- xxx and 2.- xxxfotos (where coppermine is)
on 1.- xxx i have some users where the information is stored on "account" and has fields user_name and user_password within others.

what i want is use this same user from xxx in xxxfotos.

Any help is really appreciated.

  Gracias.

merge the 2 databases into 1
edit Coppermine login etc. in PHP to use the other table

Thanks for your reply but i really need more easy to understand directions. Also can i acomplish this without merging the databases?

  Thanks.

there's no simple cut'n paste solution for this, you have to understand how it works or you won't achieve your goal.
You could also try fiddling with the bridge files that come with coppermine to use the other database's user info, but this requires some knowledge as well.
