RE: (tech) Discussion Board Software?

Try Ultimate Bulletin Board made by Infopop.  It's used on lots of sites,
has versions for either a Unix or an NT server, and is pretty cheap and well
supported.  It can do all of what you listed below, and lots of other stuff
too. (Sorry if I sound like a commercial, but I have had really good luck
with UBB, and I had never installed a CGI before).

Their site is:

Subject: (tech) Discussion Board Software?


Hi all --

I'm implementing a Web based discussion board for a client and am just
looking for opinions on the best stuff out there.  It can be a CGI solution
or a Javascript solution, or...???  It should be fairly easy to implement
and use, should allow for threading of messages, and should have some type
of admin tool that allows for deletion of inappropriate messages.  It would
be great if it also had a feature that lets you censor for foul language
and not allow such types of messages.

Ideas or suggestions?

Thanks!

Linda
