I have an existing SMF database with users that I need to import into a new installation of Drupal. It appears that the integration module does not properly validate or add users to Drupal if they are pre-existing in the SMF database. As far as I can tell, this module assumes you are starting out with virgin databases with Drupal and SMF. I would like a feature added that will let me synch all existing members in SMF database with Drupal and vice versa directly from the admin config page. Since there might be duplicate name issues there would have to be a way to resolve these. Maybe have the ability for the admin to change user's names and then to send emails informing them of the change. Either way in my case I started with an empty Drupal database, except for my admin account, and a pre-existing SMF database.

Thanks and thanks for the hard work on this module.

Also interested in this. Would anyone be able to describe or point to where I could find out how to do this manually, perhaps one by one? There would be no need for any profile info. Simply the ability to login to Drupal with SMF user/pass.

You could just write an SQL-script to do this "manually".
Just copy information from the SMF-table to the Drupal-table. I guess the password-encoding is different so this is a problem, not sure how that would work.
