    hi there
    i wonder if anyone can help me get my head around this problem.

    i currently have a (normal) wordpress installation with about 300 users, which shares its' database with a vanilla forum. it's working brilliantly.

    i had the idea of allowing users on this blog to create their own website, linked to the same username and password.

    is there any way of doing this? can anyone explain the best approach, logistically? i thought of perhaps sharing a user table with a WPMU installation, but after that, my thought process gets a bit muddled...

    Sharing the usertable should be all you need to do actually. Considering that the individual blog tables have the format wp_#_ and regular wordpress uses wp_ for table names, there shouldn't be any conflict I would think.

    I've been wrong before though. :)
