In inc/functions_user.php, you can probably modify validate_password_from_uid() which takes care with checking the password on login. Various bits of code in member.php and class_session.php deal with the cookies that keep the user logged in.
If you do change it so that it uses another authentication system, I'd recommend making a copy of the user into the mybb_users table, so that MyBB can have that user as a reference for post author data, permissions, etc. Or else you will have to end up making a lot of modifications to MyBB for it to find user data in another location.
