I'm no expert, but you need a server or host to place the software on. You'll probably need some PHP/CGI knowledge.

uhh C++ isnt web stuff...


ok...

Vbulletin (Esf forums are vb) use php and mysql, you probably need a host that costs money to be able to have one of these. no php / mysql knowledge needed, its a simple installer.

Phpbb is the same as vb, but im not sure about the installer.

Inivision Board is cgi, and kicks some ass. VBulleting quality, free, an cgi incase you have no php support.

there are more, but these are the best ones
