To allow anybody to register without your approval first, go here:
Admin Section > E-mail Server Configuration > Restrict Registration
and set it to "Off." That way, you don't have to approve every new member.
I think that's what you want, right?
As for the difference between an NT and a DB account, I don't understand what you mean, but perhaps you could post this question under a different thread so that people can see your question more easily.

Thanks,
This is what I mean in the admin options you find:
Authorization Type: DB: NT:
I really do not understand this.
Thanks |

NT authorization is most often used for Intranet situations. For instance, a business may want to set up a forum for their employees only. A user's NT username is used to identify them on the forum.
If you are putting your forum on the web, and you want anyone to participate without having to have an NT username, you should use DB authorization. |
