 * I currently have a web site that has a user database (with passwords, etc) I 
   want to use WordPress on my site but don’t want to have users have to register
   again (make passwords, etc). Is there an easy way to integrate wordpress to the
   mySQL database? So that they can log-in (act as authors, etc) with their existing
   username/pw? THanks!
