New forum (Y2.2.2) installed.
Takes me a while to dial-in new installation, but we should migrate to Y2.2.2 eventually. (I'll move all Members & Messages as the last thing I do before converting over to Y222)
Their Setup file had trouble dealing with installations to non-standard directories, such as I use. You'll notice this particular script is installed to the /yabb222 directory (while /yabb2 is standard).
I also installed non /cgi-bin files to the /yabb222files directory (while /yabbfiles is standard).
