Ok...I feel bad about bugging everyone...good news is that the server finally works! WOOHOOO ! Bad news is though...I need help editing the strConnString and strDBType stuff. Everytime I go to setup.asp I get this error:

"There has been an error !!

The database could not be opened !!
Check your config.asp file and set the
strConnString so it points to the database.
Also check if strDBType is set to the right databasetype.

Code : -2147467259
"

Could someone please help me with this part? I don't really know what line of the strConnString to edit....

you are on Brinkster right?

use this:


strDBType = "access"

strConnString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & Server.MapPath("/YOURUSERNAME/db/snitz_forums_2000.mdb") '## MS Access 2000 using virtual path


just replace YOURUSERNAME with your brinkster username.
