Is this already part of the Mambo-SMF Forum and if not, is this possible?
I use Mambo deafult login component for my users log-in, which works just fine. However when users register using the text under it "register", they are automatically added to SMF database under "Members List" yet they are not added to Mambo's User Manager.
I understand that bridge becomes a master in this operation, thus giving SMF the right to control all user associated operations, yet there are options in Mambo whill allow to select access giving for Frontend/Backend which is really useful for my needs.
I see the option in Mambo-SMF componet to synchronize these databases, yet the main question is can this be an AUTMATED process, maybe using crontabs or something of that nature. Thank you for your time.
Mambo-SMF is actually using mambo's registration. Here's the actual process: 1. when user registers, the data is inserted to mambo db 2. when user logs in, the user is automatically synchronized to SMF db. It's vise versa, whether the user is not not in mambo but in SMF.
Now, i'm really surprised that you don't see it in user manager. Because this is not an issue from my sites. When you click register, you noticed that the link is from mambo default registration... right?

Does it matter which component I'm using to register when Mambo-SMF bridge is applied? Or is there a preference issue between using SMF's action=register or Mambo's register new user module?
And apparently the issue that I'm having is indeed a Mambo issue, it's a known bug and I posted about this.
When mambo-smf bridge is applied, it should be using mambo's registration link. In smf side, the register link should be pointing to mambo's registration link. Mambo-SMF might not be able to replace the link automatically for some SMF themes. So just change it manually in your SMF template.
On the SMF side, after installing the bridge, what does the Login link (?action=login) point to? The reason I'm asking is because I'm using a heavily modified template for SMF so not sure if there was some changes by the bridge that were not applied to it since it's not a default one. Thanks.

It should be pointing to SMF's. The same as if you're just logging to SMF.
This is the same problem I have. A new user registers on the site and is added to SMF but not the Joomla user manager - i have to go to the Mambo-SMF config page and click [verify] and then [click to sync] for the memberslist to be synched.
EDIT: When the user clicks on the link in the e-mail it syncs it
