I was thinking about total management of the BBS system. 

Could be changing art work, menus, adding or removing message areas (forums),
a drop to backend, just about all aspects. 

I wanted to lock down all other access to the system except for the web front
end, and manage as much as possible via the bbs itself. 

I have a ways to go with my enigma setup, and i'm in the middle of a move so
my lab is still offline, but when it comes back on I hope to get back into
it. 

Is there an option for mysql, mariadb, posgresql as the enigma database?

I'll try to write a system to integrate with my older phpbbs to synce the
message areas and mchat functions into enigma. If a users on the phpbbs side
posts a message it will show up in enigma 1/2, and if a user on the enigma
posts a message in a forum it will show by the same user in the phpbbs. 

If syncing is too difficult then I'm just going to do a one time merge from
phpbbs mysql databse into the sqlite enigma database.
