Forum intergration

Is there been a successful way to integrate any forum package like phpbb3 with Textpattern? By this I mean is there a way to redirect www.example.com/forum to a phpbb3 folder in my sites root directory instead of through Textpatterns routing?

Wouldn’t just linking direct linking /phpbb3/ directory suffice? Is there a requirement for redirecting the user’s client?

Anyways, if you want to redirect requests from /forum/ to /phpbb3/, you can do it with .htaccess rules (or some other server conf your server happens to be is using):

Redirect 301 /forum/ http://www.example.com/phpbb3

I wouldn’t say redirecting is integrating. There is no compining of seperated units involved.
