I want to install phpBB on my site, but it is hosted NT style. Before I waste time fruitlessly attempting to install it I was wondering if phpBB works on it.

If not, then what is a php board that will?

yes, you'll need mySQL from your host. why are you on an NT host? isn't it cheaper to go with a *nix host? :confused:

i think it would be a better idea to go with snitz.com forums instead (ASP), and i'm not an NT guy so I can't help, sorry

Or you could always use IdealBB (http://www.idealbb.com/)(ASP) if you have access to a MSSQL database.
