We're trying to set up a phpBB bulletin board on our website (which doesn't actually exist yet haha), that will use MySQL as the back end. We received an Apache server from tech services that has FreeBSD already installed on it. And we're on our own now! I just burned MySQL and phpBB onto a CD and am going to try to install them on the server. I have never used unix before nor do I have any experience working with servers or hardware. I'm a software developer YIKES! Does anyone have any tips or hints for me? I would really appreciate this as I have no idea where to begin YIKES! :) Thanks ever so much...
