I want the Java Programming Forum to be off limits to Guests. I have set the permissions but it just isn't working.

Even if I were to make the entire Guest group unable to view the site, they still can...What is going on!

I just also noticed that my config.php doesn't end with "?>" , does this need to be included?

I set a forum up so that Guests can neither read, post, or edit anything in that specific section. I logged off my account to test this, and sure enough I can read the entire section of the forum that is meant to be blocked off to non members. What is going on?

I know I should visit the other PunBB forum for this, however no one has responded and I would like an answer as quickly as possible.

In the private messaging mod, the install says to do this: "patch -p2 < /location/to/PM-1.2.0.diff" How do you do this?

Hey, I just installed PunBB, and it says I have to copy code into config.php. Where is this file?

I know it does sound outrageous. Also, does gzip come with punbb or is there a place I can get it?

Hey everyone. I'm really considering using PunBB over phpBB for several reasons, one of them being the amount of bandwidth being used. I just would like to know about how much bandwidth PunBB uses. I am asking because I have phpBB at the moment, and with only a meager six users, in one night, we ate up 200MB of bandwidth. I want to lower this amount as much as possible. Also, I wanted to know if there were a place that I can find styles for PunBB if I decide to use this software.
