Werezwolf Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 I think the title is very clear but i have a site that has 2 user databases, one for web mail (Round cube) and one for a directory of content that the user has to be authenticated for. I was wondering if i should throw the password in $_SESSION and authenticate web mail if the user is logged in? Obviously i should not send that password back to the client if it be encrypted or not but i would inject the username and password into the web mail authentication handler as if the user had already filled in the form. Due to certain circumstances i am unable to merge the user databases. If there are any other possibilities do recommend them instead.

Solution scootstah Posted February 5, 2015 Solution Share Posted February 5, 2015 Absolutely not. Can you not add the web mail hash to your other database? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
