OK, I have enabled PHP4 on my client version of MacOS X and have installed PHPBB2 but when i goto http://myipaddress/phpbb2/install.php (This is not a real link!) everything works but i dont really know what a "database" is or any other thing listed under database... Can anyone please help me? I would really like to have my own messageboard hosted off my macos x machine.
P.S. does anyone know any free hosting that will allow me to install and run PHP/CGI scripts/apps?
