catsdorule Senior Member Canada 1627 Posts	Posted - 29 Aug 2002 : 21:10:34 Ok I just started school and in one of my classes we had the option to take it on the internet and I decided to of cource he also said to us that if we made some fourms (because he did not know how) that we'd get a extra 25% on our term mark so since I know a fair bit of html I said I'd give it a shot so did about 3 others (this was before I knew that the fourms were in asp ) now he is relying on me to do this and I don't know what to do I really don't know what to do I need to get some fourm software ready soon and it is now not a question if I can or can't do this I have to. The fourm software I tried to use is the one these fourms are powered by you know Snits fourms. Can anyone help me here? -Danny Canadian Sniper Squadron 3 stars. ------------------------------------- My site and web access to service manuals. Edited by - catsdorule on 12 Sep 2002 09:58:59

There's plenty of software, lots of it free, that you just put on a server and press start. ~Coxy - Leader, Tactical Operations Unit Mayor of NuBus City v3.0

~Coxy Leader, Tactical Ops Unit Australia 2822 Posts	Posted - 30 Aug 2002 : 03:52:04 BTW, Snitz is asp based and will only run on Windows/Linux, and possibly Mac OS X if the Linux layer you run it in is ported. I know that MacAddict's forums software can be hosted on a Mac, tho. ~Coxy - Leader, Tactical Operations Unit Mayor of NuBus City v3.0

I still prefer Snitz though. -------------------------- "I keep my friends close, but I keep my enemies closer" - Unkown Warrior maclover5 68k Macintosh Liberation Army Number of 68ks Liberated: 6
catsdorule Senior Member Canada 1627 Posts	Posted - 30 Aug 2002 : 06:01:47 Yes I know it will be hosted on windowze but I followed the instructions to the best of my ability but it won't work. I wonder how would you go about making that port... -Danny Canadian Sniper Squadron 3 stars. ------------------------------------- My site and web access to service manuals.

scchicago Full Member USA 936 Posts	Posted - 31 Aug 2002 : 17:55:19 I downloaded Snitz forums and set it up on my Windows server. It works fine. _________________ Leutennant SCCHICAGO HotLineServer(closed): scchicago.dynodns.net Website(closed): http://scchicago.dynodns.net MyForum(closed): http://scchicago.dynodns.net/forum NOTE:MAIN SERVER ONLY ON WHEN I'M ONLINE

My advice is get an asp package and hack forums. shaktiman Quadra 840av 128MB ram 2MB vram cd drive(caddy),1 caddy!:-)1.44 floppy drive,inject :-(1.2 gig drive 2 monitors 15" & 14" os 8.1 56k modem Stylewriter 1200 Zodiac speakers Umax 1220s scanner 3 year old son!
scchicago Full Member USA 936 Posts	Posted - 03 Sep 2002 : 15:38:54 CATSDORULE I've got another idea. Use Snitz forums on a Brinkster account. Brinkster is an AD-FREE FREE webhosting service that supports ASP. It was even mentioned in the SNITZ setup guide how to set it up on a Brinkster account. _________________ Leutennant SCCHICAGO HotLineServer(closed): scchicago.dynodns.net Website(closed): http://scchicago.dynodns.net MyForum(closed): http://scchicago.dynodns.net/forum NOTE:MAIN SERVER ONLY ON WHEN I'M ONLINE
catsdorule Senior Member Canada 1627 Posts	Posted - 03 Sep 2002 : 16:23:54 Cool, I'll try that! -Danny Canadian Sniper Squadron 3 stars. ------------------------------------- My site and web access to service manuals.
Stryder Junior Member USA 382 Posts	Posted - 05 Sep 2002 : 10:30:21 Hey, I decided to try putzing around with the Brinkster.com setup and this is what I have so far. I think it should work fine for you Cats. http://www22.brinkster.com/originalstryder/db "One slip and down the hole we fall"
catsdorule Senior Member Canada 1627 Posts	Posted - 05 Sep 2002 : 10:36:52 How did you get it to work! when I tried that all I got were a lot of errors! -Danny Canadian Sniper Squadron 3 stars. ------------------------------------- My site and web access to service manuals.
Stryder Junior Member USA 382 Posts	Posted - 05 Sep 2002 : 17:17:32 You'll laugh at me for this, I'm sure. I'm not all that great at programming and being pure Mac in the house, I had no way of trying it here at home either. I unzipped the file here and was able to upload all but 3 of the files at first. The first one's problem was just minor. Being unzipped on a Mac, it cut off the last two letters of the file extention that windows needs to see due to the name length. The Second file was the big problem. The file: inc_func_member.asp , has a piece of code in it that Brinkster's server doesn't like to upload. So I took it out to upload it and than put it back in after it was place. As for the third one, pop_moderate.asp , I just left it out and tried it. It seems to be working fine. Call me crazy I guess.
