okay..so i got the files for the forum...i got a server that will support asp, http://www.brinkster.com/ , now what the heck do i do. i'm new at asp. and i seem to be missing something in the readme that was provided.

im not gettin these:


2. Open the config.asp file in your favorite text editor
(DO NOT USE FRONTPAGE FOR THIS !).

a. Remove the ' in front of the "strDBType" variable with the database type you
want to use.

b. Update the "strConnString" variable with the correct path to were your .MDB file
if going to be on the server or to the SQL-server database
Make sure you remove the ' in front of the variablestring you want to use.

c. If you need to rename the prefix on your tables, then update the
"strTablePrefix" variable as appropriate. For a first install the default
setting doesn't need to be changed.

d. If you are sharing a member list with another version of these forums, then
update the "strMemberTablePrefix" to point to that list in the same Database.
For a first install the default setting doesn't need to be changed.

if anyone has used www.brinkster.com , and could help me out, i'd greatly appreciate it. thanks.

Why don't you try doing a search here on the forums for brinkster. You will find lots of topics on users getting thier forum setup on brinkster.

And there is a connection string in the config.asp file that you can use for brinkster. All you need to put in is your brinkster username and remove the ' from the front of that line.
