I have tried to connect to the SQL database utilizing the tools I use for managine other SQL databases but I cannot seem to connect. I know you can use the db.view to view or modify the database, but I wanted to be replicate some of the data with another databse.

Anyone know if this is possible? Does anyone know what SQL database this uses? I use MySQL for my other databases.

In case you are wondering why I would want this. I want to try to replicate my phpbb forum IDs with Subsonic.

Thanks Jigsaw.

BTW if any one else is interested this doesnt look possible. There are no tools to synch between the two database types. The only thing you could do to share a user datbase is to use LDAP, but that raises the issue of people not being able to register for IDs on your PHPBB bulletin board.
