Cross domain authentication with Ion_auth for Codeigniter

Question

I have a website built on Codeigniter with Ion_auth for authentication.

I'm now building a new site with PyroCMS and would like users to be logged into PyroCMS when they're logged into my original site.

What's the best way to check the session or cookie in the second Codeigniter site?

You can try appstucco. It basically replaces your pyrocms users module with a custom version so that you can use one ldap server for multiple sites.
