SSO on separate server

[Max Meter]

For some new project, ipboard (machine A) would need to run on a single server.

On another server, we would need to run a custom application (machine B), using SSO to get the current logged in user from ipboard.

Now our main question is: we need to load the init.php, as explained here.

Would we need to setup the whole IPBoard (using same database login details) on machine B too?

If our software is on server A and another project on server B needs to load the user (i.e. SSO), you won't be able to just load init.php in that capacity very easily.

You will probably be better off implementing an oAuth connection between the two sites with 4.3 when it is available.
