You have 3 options, Apache, IIS, or PWS.

Personally use Apache, but it is your choice of which server to use.

You will also have to install MySQL and PHP.

Read the information on how to install Apache on that topic.

Then read the info on how to install PHP.

Then read the info on how to configure php with apache.

Then read the info on how to install MySQL.

Then read the info on testing out the new server.

Don't worry about it, there was a time when I had to first learn how to install this stuff as well. Although you are alot luckier than I was because there wasn't a guide for me to read like this. I had to learn it all on my own.

I recommend you download the safe mode package here:

http://www.yabbse.org/download.php

And then read "readme.html" ;).

Because it works if php has safe mode turned on or off. The normal one does not work if safe mode is on.

Ok Thanks

I have downloaded the file and now looking at the manual. I am lost now LOL

It says upload and create a directory on the server. As this server is only going to run on a Internal Network how do i get into the directory
