Can some one help me get started please.
I have classic 6.7.3 and would like to upgrade to the ubb.threads.

I downloaded both threads zip and the imported, but there doesan't seem to be any installation instructions.
I did fin this link, but it is bad:
https://www.ubbcentral.com/newsite/doc_install.php

Where is the step by step guide to install, and import my old boards?

2 questions...

While setting permissions,
1. I assume the Windows permission Modify is the permission 'delete' called out in the installation instructions.

2. When set the permission Read & Execute (to get Execute) Windows automatically checks 'List Forder Contents' .. is that OK?

Okay, BBS went up without problems (yay, you guys rock)
Import went smoothly (once again, yay)

But my redirector is choking
http://www.tomasello.com/ubb/ultimatebb.php?/ubb/forum/f/4.html
is a link to a post on my old board, but fails now.

It now resolves here:
http://www.tomasello.com/ubbthreads...4/topic/000029/Number/0/site_id/1#import

I edited both the .cgi and .php files from the importer and changed the URL as requested, and replaced my normal ones, but I now get a 404 instead of a redirect.
What else do I need to do?
