I have just set up PHPBB, an open source bulletin board program,
http://phpbb.com and it is working very well.  It is free and installs in
5 minutes on a PHP / MySQL enabled server.   It's integrated web polls are
great too.   It was easy to change the code to enable Japanese and Chinese
(on PC).  It is easy to set up and easy to use.   Joseph
