When you first login and goto the File Manager you should have a db directory.
That is where you will upload the snitz_forums_2000.mdb database file to.
Make a directory named forum. Now you should see both the db directory and the forum directory.
The forum directory is where you will upload all of the files except for the snitz_forums_2000.mdb database file.
Just upload the files and then edit your config.asp file to point to your Database and choose the database type.
It should look like this for Brinkster:
'#################################################################################
'## SELECT YOUR DATABASE TYPE AND CONNECTION TYPE (access, sqlserver or mysql)
'#################################################################################
'strDBType = "sqlserver"
strDBType = "access"
'strDBType = "mysql"
'## Make sure to uncomment one of the strConnString lines!
'strConnString = "DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ=c:\inetpub\dbroot\snitz_forums_2000.mdb" '## MS Access 97
strConnString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & Server.MapPath("/YOURUSERNAME/db/snitz_forums_2000.mdb") '## MS Access 2000 using virtual path
'strConnString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=c:\inetpub\database\snitz_forums_2000.mdb;" '## MS Access 2000
'strConnString = "driver={SQL Server};server=SERVER_NAME;uid=SQL_USER;pwd=PASSWORD;database=DATABASE_NAME" '## MS SQL Server 7
'strConnString = "driver=MySQL;server=SERVER_NAME;uid=MYSQL_USER;pwd=PASSWORD;database=DATABASE_NAME" '## MySQL
just change YOURUSERNAME to your Brinkster username.
You'll need to also edit admin_count.asp
Find this line:
Server.ScriptTimeout = 6000
change it to this:
Server.ScriptTimeout = 60
