    ok, bit of a long one. I'm working on a major project and want to use wordpress Mu.
    Currently I am running PhpBB forums. Now what i want is thus:

    Forums.domain.com - forum
    members.domain.com - wordpress mu installation for member blogs
    comic.domain.com - wordpress installation running comicpress
    gallery.domain.com - Gallery
    wiki.domain.com - Site wiki
    domain.com - wordpress mu installed on domain, using subdomains. each blog acts as a catagory, wordpress mu runs as a CMS.

    so my primary help requests are:
    Can mu configured with VHOSTS ignore certain subdomains? when i've tested before i've found that when set to subdomains will ignore any real subdomains and just show you wordpress.
    Secondly i need to integrate the whole lot, i've messed with ALL of the phpbb integration options i've seen so far, only thing i can find that may work is:
    http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/external-database-authentication/
    not that i can figure out how to get that running (both phpbb3 and wordpress use the same hashing method, with phpbb3 using an ever so slightly modified hash).
    I would prefer:
    http://www.simplicitypoint.com/2009/04/18/wp-phpbb3-bridge/
    but unfortunately the developer has gone awol and the version that should work, doesnt.

    Any help at all would be appreciated.
