Passing Authentication Credentials From WP Site to External

Hello,
I am using the S2 Login Widget to gain access to member areas. I have an external site that I want to pass the same user login credentials the member uses to log into member areas within our WP site.
So when the user clicks on a link to this outside application within the members area, we can pass the same credentials to the outside application, to prevent the user from logging in once again. I am a DIY'er so please dumb it down for me.
Thanks in advance.
