Interesting... Does >that work? This isn't really an issue with database connections. It's just the authentication data/method that needs to persist for both. And that is handled by a cookie/ticket authentication. Thanks to Cees Hek <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> for helping me find a module I had lost track of. The module is mod_auth_tkt and can be found here: http://www.openfusion.com.au/labs/mod_auth_tkt/ I'm on my way to having an elegant solution now. Thanks to all who responded.
