Centralized authentication web2py app and drupal site, is it possible?

I'm writing a web2py app to manage events and other activities which require users's information, such as id and names for certificates, on the other side there's a drupal site that already has the registered users.

I would like the share the drupal users to my web2py app so i don't have to register users again in my app.

To authenticate against the another web server that supports basic authentication is possible using basic auth module. Just add following to your model file after auth initialization and replace a proper http address to your Drupal ... 

from gluon.contrib.login_methods.basic_auth import basic_auth
auth.settings.login_methods.append(
    basic_auth('https://basic.example.com'))

For details see this section from documentation: Other login methods and login forms
