We’re going to install phpBB shortly. Like WordPress, the phpBB authors recently came out with a 3.0 version of the software. To install that, take a look at my OLD phpBB message board HERE for install instructions. Note that this time, we are going to install a “BZip 2” archive (.bz2 file). BZIP is a different, but similar program to GZIP that we have used many times. The command to use it in Putty is:
bzip2 whatever.tar    (create a .bz2 archive from the .tar file)
bunzip2 whatever.bz2Â Â Â Â (get the .tar file out of a .bz2 archive)
