I need help. How do you use a MySql database to create a PHPBB forum? I've got that blue page with the structure and blah blah blah, I just need help getting PHPBB from not there, to there.

You have to read the instruction page that comes with it.

You could just get a remote one: http://www.phpbbweb.com

I've figured it out, but I have to wait until the domain transfer goes through before I have "full" ftp access and can change the chmod.

dude, you already have 'full' ftp accsess
go to: http://yourDNSname.com/~youraccountsusername

That's probably it, I'm surprised that they didn't give you it in the email.

The domain transfer hasn't gone through yet, so any new pages that I put on don't take affect until the transfer is completed. That means that I can't access them to change the chmod. Yet. They say about a week.

no, You can still accsess them, they should give you an email that has a link that looks something like this:

http://theirdomain.com/~habook

and if they haven't, then they're not that good of a host.

It's ftp.laughsaplenty.com when the domain transfer goes through, it uses the domain name so it won't work until it does.

I know but you can still get to your account without a domain, and if they didn't send you the host link then they're not worth it, I'd email them about it.
