You will need some sort of server side scripting ability like ASP or PHP and access to a database from the server.

Then you can get hold of any of a number of open source forum packages.

You could do worse than

http://www.snitz.com

(for ASP) or

http://www.phpbb.com

(for PHP). Both are relatively easy to set up, and you don't need to do very much programming. And both are free. --

Hi Deepcalling,

I recently set up a message board for a client using YaBB -

http://www.yabbforum.com

(free version). The trick is to read everything very carefully before you start. Then follow the instructions and test each stage before you start any customizations. It's a snap really. My efforts at

http://www.perthchemist.com.au

and there are loads of people at the YaBB site who'll be glad to help out.

Jill.
