I don't know how webApp is set up. I've never looked at the files. But I can tell you about DBMan.


Sorta. Actually, DBMan uses the password file (default.pass) for the users. The .db file is for the records. The .pass file is set up as

username:encrypted password:view permission:add permission:delete permission:modify permission:admin permission

If you've added the lookup mod, there is also the email address. Notice that this file uses a : to define the fields.

It is the password file that you need to coordinate first with webApp so that your users can log in just once and be able to access both your forum and your database.

Your .db file is further information about the user, which is the sort of thing that is stored in profile of a message board.

I'm not exactly sure what you want to do. At first I thought that you were going to use DBMan to store the profiles of your users. But it seems that webApp already has a profile and what you really want to do is copy the information from the fields into the files that webApp uses.

I'm really not sure how to answer your questions until I know where you're heading. I'm a bit dense these days. :)
