I would look at exUserFolder.  You'll probably have to write your own 
single-sign-in type service, but it can be done.

The (initial) problem is this:  Unless the two sites are in the same 
domain and you use domain-wide cookies for both CMF's, the internal 
user's browser won't send the authentication cookie to the external CMF 
instance.  Does that make sense?  I need sleep :)

You might also look at an LDAP based solution (is there an LDAPUserFolder?)
