Topic: punBB Forum Hosting

@ Vector 3.NET we are currently getting users who want to have a punBB forum hosted without the hassle of setting up. We offer you a subdomain for example http://test.vector3.net and so on depending on the name you would like. Before doing so, you will have to e-mail an application sort of thing which tells me what you would like, please fill in the below and e-mail to raf@vector3.net

Admin Username:
Admin Password:
Subdomain Name:
Purpose for Hosting:

I might ask to put a little text link on the bottom, but we will see. Be sure to send the application to me and not post it here. smile

Actually they went down about 2 hours after going up.

There are lots of host companies offering Free hosting for PHP & have MySQL databases.

Trouble is, I don't know what the heck I'm doing. Would anyone be willing to upload files to relevant places & help me get set up?

Sure. Email me at ps21@post21.co.uk with the details and we will get it sorted out. When choosing a free host make sure they allow forum scripts, some don't. Also make sure they don't use a framed redirect otherwise you can get login problems.

Got it. Try your Lycos forum now. The problem is that Lycos ftp is unreliable. You think you have copied everything to the server only to find a lot of files are missing.
