Hi Kal Corp,
I'm curious to know how are you planning to do this in "db" mode? What will supply the username and password?

This was going to be a NT Mod, But after hearing requests about having a db mode forum where members do not have to register to post. I thought we could have everyone set to a name like “Visitor”. They could still go to the profile page and change the name and info.

or, better yet, have a field in the DB available for when this mode is enabled (and have it populated when it's not enabled by username's stored in the member table) where when a user goes to post, they have to enter a name of who the post is from (MS Frontpage BBS's do this). It allows you to assign a name to a post.
The one thing that would need to be addressed here though, would be if somone switches from non-registerd mode to registration mode after having posts done in the other.
Going from reigsterd to non-registered is easy if you populate the username of the person posting into the post when it's done.
I guess some error checking could be done to just show the name from the post info and recognize it for the type of post it is.
Then the question comes out, what about having a 4th forum type!
1. Regular Registered Forum
2. Private Forum
3. URL
<b>4. Regular Non-Registration Forum (no registered username required)</b>
then give the admin option to run exclusively as type 4. And then also piggyback the options for showing the "Members" link at the top of hte page, and then puting code in the members.asp page to redirect to default.asp if the option is disabled in the DB.

Sounds like the “db” mode needs more discussions.
Might be better for me to get the NT Auto Register working first. Then have the “db” part as another mod.
FYI
Got a 4th forum type comming (Sub Categories) <img src=icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>

For "NT" mode I need someone to help out getting the E-mail Address from the servers.
I have all the code for NT Account, Full Name, and Groups, Just need that E-mail Code. My first try didnt work like I wanted it to <img src=icon_smile_dissapprove.gif border=0 align=middle>

For this Mod to work the NT Group Mod should be installed first.

Kal,
U forget to mention that there is a bug with with "db" & "nt" support. The fix is @ http://forum.snitz.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=1468&FORUM_ID=11&CAT_ID=1
So u would need to:
1. Install NT Grp Mod
2. Fix the bug for better "db" & "nt" support
3. Install Auto NT Registration Mod
Right ?
