[quote] This method only works for PHPBB 2.*. Users will use mediawiki to login, disable the phpbb login page[/quote]
As mentioned earlier this is not the functionality I need.. I'm after phpBB2 as the primary login because it already provides the integrated login for a number of other apps.
Thanks though.

You're better using an auth plugin. I'm sure there's already one for PhpBB login.
There is something out there already but the problem is that it's in
the
wrong direction, ie you have to login using mediawiki instead of the
other
way round.
Are you sure on it?
An auth plugin fires on login, so it can authenticate the user against the phpbb password db, and create the mw user if not existing for mediawiki.
In fact, http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:PHPBB/Users_Integration seems to be what you want.
