I came across the read me and it looks a little out of my league. Is this something that can be done by a non-familiar person. I do webdesign for a living but work mostly in graphical side of things CGI kinda scares me.
anyway is this going to take some time on my part.?
First make sure that your host or server supports ASP (Active Server Pages).
Then you'll just need to upload the files as indicated in the readme.txt file.
The snitz_forums_2000.mdb file is the database for the forum. It is in the tools.zip file that is in the .zip file you downloaded.
You'll need to put the snitz_forums_2000.mdb file into a "database" directory. This directory will need read/write/modify permissions.
then it's just a matter of editing the config.asp file and uncommenting the line with the database type (if you use the database that comes in the .zip file then you would choose "access"). Then you uncomment and edit one of the strConnString lines with the path to the database.
Are you using your own server? Or are you using a webhost?
