Does this forum use PHPBB?

Hi,

I am trying to setup a forum in my office using PHPBB. is 160GB of disk space enough for this and what is the best book to follow for PHPBB on linux?

Digit runs on vBulletin which is a PAID forum Script.
As far as your phpbb Forum is concerned....160GB is a looooooooooooooooot. Forum Database for most Big sites is not more than few GIGS.

Attachement, Avatar filesizes extra.

Best way to learn is.....phpBB forum itself

yeah digit runs on vbulletin.. If u hav a server wit php n mysql installed on it then even a hundred mb of space would suffice for starters.. A freshly installed phpbb takes around 15mb.. If u plan to use attachments n all in d forum then u need more space..

Even .1% of 160 GB is more than enough!

phpBB is pretty simple and there is online documentation and forum for support. You won't need a book.

phpBB remains same whether it is installed on Linux server or Windows server.

BTW, this forum doesn't run on phpBB. It runs on vBulletin. *www.vbulletin.com

We all said exactly the same thing but in different ways

__________
IF you need PHP,Apache, MySQL, phpmyadmin on Linux and want to do that with ease, Search for any LAMP server

LAMP - Software Bundle of Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP XAAMP is good BTW
