I have an ASP account (windows), but the mySQL DB included in my package runs on another server (linux). Can I connect the web wiz forum on one server to a DB on another? If not, where would I host web wiz forums? Any recommendations of a good host? Does it run on GoDaddy? Thanks, cm

This shouldn't an a problem as the mySQL database only needs to be connected to using ODBC, so as long as the database has ODBC support it should be fine.
