Has anyone ever tried this?
I'm currently hosting my phpbb forum on my home computer using MS Webmatrix. I would like to get rid of Webmatrix and switch over to XAMPP. I have several immediate concerns regarding this, 1) how do I get the XAMPP mysql database set up to work with my current board without losing any data. 2) how do I keep the same web address to log in to my board. I currently subscribe to dns2go to give me a static address for my dynamic IP address from my ISP. Because I have so many users, I would like to keep the same address without having to add ports or subdirectories to it.
TIA!
