log on to one, log on to all - web apps

I have the following scenario:

2 win2k3 servers with MCMS2002, load balanced
3 win2k3 SPS2003 servers in medium server farm configuration
1 SQL2k/2k5 environment (probably a cluster)
All users are external and log on with credentials in active directory on
the same domain as the servers above.

There will be a website that sits as an umbrella over the top of the two
websites (CMS and SPS). This website will have a forms-based login - all
users are external and will log in here.

What I'm trying to achieve: once the user completes login on the umbrealle
site they will be logged in on both SPS and CMS.


How can I achieve this? Sicne the sites will be on the same root domain name
I can share a cookie betweent he sites (I think) but I can't see how I pass
the windows token between the environment. Is there another way? And how do
I stop the session from timing out on e.g. SPS if the user is on CMS for an
hour?

Any suggestions, however theoretical, would be gratefully received.
