All of my CakePHP projects are integrated into vBulletin and simply use
the board's cookies.

When a user is logged in onto the board, he gets at least two cookies:
one with the user id and one with a password hash.

I can check the id and the password hash against the vBulletin user
table and can authenticate the user. A check for special user groups
like "banned" users or administrators is also possible.

I think it's possible to do something similar with SMF.

(Code for my vB-AuthComponent is about 3 KiB or so, 1 DB query is done
per CakePHP action - but it's easily possible to create a session after
initially authenticating the user against vBulletin. Then only one
query against the vBulletin database is needed for every session.).

Cheers, Marcus
