I made the bridge between SMF and Mambo without a problem, fast and easy, thank you for this! The updated FAQ was the key because I'm installed via Fantastico and there are seperate dbs for each. I did this with new installs of both programs that have yet to go live so the following wasn't an issue but as I was doing it, the thought occurred, "What happens if by coincidence there are some people with indentical logins for each, SMF and Mambo, but they are different people?"

then you may have problems...
the first time a user logs in, it will check to see if that user exists in both systems... if he/she does it will attempt to sync the user info.
