You can get smallpox even if you have had chickenpox.
This was a popular question before irradication of small pox in seventy's in last century. (Probably 1976.) Now a days as small pox is kept closed in laboratory in London, you will not get it. ( Now it is high time that these stored germs should be destroyed. As once they were accidently leaked out of lab in 1978. If you happen to catch small pox, then the fluid from the vesicles of the patient will be good source of virus. You can prepare the vaccine from this source. If leaked out these viruses can be used by mad terrorist group as biological warfare weapon.)
Immunity to chickenpox does not confer immunity to smallpox, even though the original smallpox vaccine was based upon cowpox. Also note that smallpox has been eradicated, and unless it is released from some secret stockpile of biological weapons, nobody is going to get smallpox, ever again, and hence we do not need to worry about how to prevent people from getting it.
