but he wants some users in "site1" to be able to access "site2" with all the profile information, etc.
Well this is the big question. Does he want all or some?
If you want all the user info then yes accessing a remote database would be your answer.
To do this just create 2 Database handles:
my $dbh = DBI->connect('DBI:mysql:database=dbname;host=localhost','use
+r','pass');
my $dbh_user DBI->connect('DBI:mysql:database=userdb;host=remote','use
+r','pass');
Even better use Class::DBI. You'll be able to hide all the ugliness of having 2 separate databases. Just create 2 unique DBI classes to inherit from.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
