Look at the solution without using Mapguide for a moment.  I presume you can 
query/update data in a normal web form without Mapguide.  

With the assumption that you have that working you can create a new frameset 
with two frames.  One being Mapguide, the other being your web form that 
accesses the database.  Pass data back and forth between the 2 forms as needed. 
 Use Mapguide with anonymous access and update the data in the web form using 
Integrated Security.

This is only one way to do it, I'm sure other people will chime in with other 
methods that may be better and more efficient.

These are non-geospatial databases. Basically I get the id of a feature (e.g.
parcelnumber) out of the map and need to get information out of these
databases based on the id. The kind of information is very different (e.g.
reports, parcel information). The used database vendors are ranging from SQL
Server, MS Acces to Oracle. The access is done with a direct connection (not
via FDO) towards the databases.
One thing that should be possible for example is to add new information to
the database based on a spatial filter in the map. But not everyone is
allowed to this, neither is everybody allowed to generate reports.
Each of these handlings are separate .aspx pages that need to be secured
based on the user that is logged in (windows users). Therefore I need to
work with Integrated Security. 

Hope this gives a clear picture of what I try to achieve.
