I need a forum/board for our club site

Stanw3

Can someone direct me to a forum/message board program I can use for our club website? We won't have near the traffic the samba does- but it would be nice to have an automated system that required minimal maintenance - and did I mention free???

Thanks

Ditto. This one is pretty good. Free as well.

Just make sure your service provider supprts php and mysql, most do, but there are a few dinosaurs out there who are still stuck in the nineties!

Open source has that covered too, also using mysql and php. It's called Gallery, check it out here : http://gallery.menalto.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=index
Installation can be a bit confusing, but if you follow the read me doc, and don't worry about the stuff they say not to worry about, you'll do ok!

The samba was my first thought too, when I was looking for a gallery, Everett wrote the code himself. Jeremy
