Trying to install w/MS SQL 2000
Good day all!

So, I hear great things about NBBS and I'm figuring I'd set up a forum on my own server for all the geeks I know that game together.  Got the installation part figured out except that I get stuck while running newinstall.php.  Seems the only adodb driver that I found in the v. 0.5.0 install files was for mysql. 

I'm desperately hoping that SourceForge or some other location might have the file adodb-mssql.inc.php that I believe I need in order for NBBS to connect the DB I created in SQL 2000.  I did attempt to try other DB options like ODBC-Enabled, but that also requires a different adodb driver that my installation package didn't come with.

In my case, MySQL isn't an option since I've already got a number of DB's on SQL 2000 and I don't want to take the pain to switch them all over just for this software.  I'd really like to find the other DB option files - hopefully they exist!

If someone could assist me I'd be very grateful! 

My apologies if this post is in the wrong place - I couldn't post inside the "Installation" forum directory. 

Thanks to all in advance!

Brett
