- Might want to try the fireboard forums, they would probably know best.

3rd Post from the bottom. Download that script. Open it up in a web editor. Youll find a section that looks this:
Config
*/
//MySQL Database host - usually 'localhost'
$host='p41mysql143.secureserver.net';
//MySQL Database user
$user='divingnutzforum';
//MySQL Database password
$pass='*******';
//MySQL Database name
$db='divingnutzforum';
// Mambo database prefix
$mosConfig_dbprefix = "smf_";
// phpBB2 database prefix
$phpbb_dbprefix = "phpbb_";
/*
*/
The bold items are what you have to change to setup the script for your server. If you dont know your database info, call your webhost, they should be able to help.
Once youve edited those items, save it and upload it to your website. Then point your browser towards it.

Why oh why would anyone want to do that?
I nearly moved to FB until I realized how much that software is lacking. Have you looked into the bridge Rocketwerx is making?
I'm not trying to be bossy. Sorry if it comes across that way. But if you need things like Member groups, and private boards you might want to think twice about moving to FB.

- Well, I like how it's all incorporated into one of the theme's. And I just cant get PHPBB to sit within the theme...

Looks like a great solution is coming. Follow the link in the post, and read the blog.

I believe that our forum woes are nearly over.
