Could someone more experienced user tell me in the easy way how i should setup this part?
How should it look in Virtualavae.net free host, for example? My files is in public_html/forum and public_html/forum/tools.
snitz_forums_2000.mdb is located in public_html/cgi-bin/

This part is confusing me because i have not seen this setup in any other board soft, like UBB and UltraBoard, nor Discus..i've try them all with succe.
What CHMOD should i use, think the doc file is badly made, it's hard to understand if you do not understand board-setups really good, it's wrote like you allready know all about this software.
Anyway, i would appreciate help!
Thx in advance :)
I would appreciate all help here

Virtualave.net doesn't support ASP or this Forum. If you want to use this forum, you'll need to find a host that supports ASP.<

Having not setup other boards, I can not comment on their ease of setup.

This board is very simple you only have to do four things.
1) copy all the forum files to a directory in your webspace.
2) copy the mdb file to a directory with red/write permissions
3) uncomment the line strDBType="access" in config.asp
4) uncomment this line
'strConnString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=c:\inetpub\dbroot\forum.snitz.com\snitz_forum.mdb;" '## MS Access 2000

and change this c:\inetpub\dbroot\forum.snitz.com\snitz_forum.mdb to the correct path to your DB.

That's it.


Please try to be civil when posting to the boards, there any many people of all ages reading the posts here.
