I am looking into several FORUM packages..

We are currently using YaBB. but need some password protected threads.

I have looked into phpBB, which looks pretty sweet.
It has MySQL and PHP mixed. with secure threads.

Does Powweb offer anything, or what forum package are you using?

Thanks

(1) This Powweb member forum is using vBulletin. It costs money, and is PHP/MySQL based. MySQL is a separately-priced add-on to your Powweb package is you want to use it.

(2) YaBB works well here. The latest version (Gold-SP1) is much faster than previous versions, but is still completely Perl-based. I don't know what you mean by secure threads, but you can restrict a Board to certain member groups, in which case that Board does not even appear to be present to ordinary users.

But you're free to use any BBS here.
