We have a site membership database in SQL Server 2005.

 

I was wondering how to go about integrating this site membership database with Messenger, so that when users are added/deleted from the site membership database then this change is automatically made to the Messenger accounts. And when users login into the website, then they are automically logged into Messenger.

 

I had a look at http://cutesoft.net/ASP.NET+Chat/Developer-Guide/scr/DeploymentIntegration.htm and I'm not sure where to start.

 

Any advice on the first steps would be appreciated.
