Ok, well I am working with a website intergrating the login ect...I did that perfectly grin.gif and it works grin.gif...the problem is the admin panel, I would like to know if there is something out to make it easier to add a section in the admin panel...and if not, I was wondering How the passwords were encrypted, so I can just add another login on another admin panel I am making...
-- Thanks in advance

You want to integrate the IPB Admin panel into what? If are are looking to add sections into the IPB Admin panel there would be needed a fair bit of code though. I belive for IPB that passwords however are in MD5 format, anyone correct me if I am wrong!

vB is likeloy to be md5 encypted, im not sure however if they double hash it with sha1...i thought i read that somewhere.
It would have thought its more likely to be just md5.
As for your other questions, im stuck as to what you mean as well
You want to add a tab into the IPB admin panel?

I don't want to pretend I know the way around IPB's code, but I belive, unless noone here is very good with it, that help can be gotten at IPS Beyond and Invisionize especially for that kind of things, or you can just look at a modification on how they did it. (Unreal Portal is a good example I think.)

Why don't you use the same database? Just give IPB the same user permissions as your CMS problem solved.

What Donna said is the easiest thing to do. If you do not want to use that, I suggest downloading. IPBSDK. It is a software developors kit, and it is basicly an entire library of scripts in which you can run IPB's core scripts from your own website and code.

You could create a component system with only the ACP page and just have the code in there add things to your database tables and edit things in there too. That would be the easiest way to do that. Although you should know some of IPB's main coding. Read up on it in the Wiki at ipsbeyond.com

You could just edit the pages and navigation links of IPB. Adding a page to the admin panel isn't that hard.
It does require some simple page edits. You'll also have to add some custom created scripts to tell the page what to show.
But, since it is a CMS, I would assume that oyu already have the CMS Admin pages setup somewhere. If that's the case, then you can just do an include() on the custom created pages.
I believe Invisionize has a tutorial on adding pages to the ACP. I'll try and find it. I can't seem to come across it while searching, though. So, I'm sure if you post in search for it someone will link you in the right direction.
I hope this solves what you were looking for. From what you said, it seemed, to me, that you wanted to integrate your CMS ACP into the IPB ACP. Not just combine the databases. If that's what you want, this should do it.

ok!
So we are discussing about IPB integrated with main website and having the same admin panel.
First of all those of you who want to wait to IPB to release shortly which will solves all voes. I think its going to be released soon with ipb 2.2
Now a workaround:
1. If you are very much into IPB , then have custom pages mod do the trick for you. You can insert any PHP page in that.
2. Now a perfect CMS integration with complete login and other details and also forum integration can be found with subdreamer.com. It does it's does it's task perfectly.

are you one of the beta testers on 2.2? as they only released V2.1.7, personally hope 2.2 doesn't get released until EVERYTHING is fixed.

How I wish I could be 2.2 Beta tester 
I didn't knew about 'issues', as you say "EVERYTHING is fixed."
