Oh, simple.

Just hook up your 'new' login script to the already-in-use forum database.

Even a cave man could do it!

You could integrate your forum system to a website, google for it. If you use phpBB system, then its piece of cake. No idea for vBulletin or others.

Find a PHP login script on google and make it connect to the same database as the one on your forum.

These are obvious answers, but it's lots more difficult to actually do that than just to explain it in words. Your PHP script has to send the same kind of POST data, and you'd have to remove the login area from your forum or hide it somehow. You can't use the forum database for a lot other than the forum's data because it was set up for MyBB specifically. You'll have to create your own tables to store data and information in.

On top of that, if you don't know what you're doing, joining the two would pose a higher risk to security. You need to make sure that everything is secure before you can be confident in actually using it.

I used to do this with PhpBB, but i'm not sure how MyBB would be.
