You'll need a proxy authentication cache, something like the serendipity_event_externalauth plugin does.

It queries the IPB user database and caches that information inside the serendipity_authors DB table. This is required, because serendipity requires its users to be inside that database.

I'm afraid this isn't possible without you being skilled in some SQL/PHP operation. You can't just combine two seperate applications.
