Welcome to the forums Darcy
For e-mail, before you switch
you can forward all your accounts on your current host to your ISP e-mail or gmail.
That way as propagation takes place, you will still get all your e-mail.
Please let us know what else you need.
We are like family here, helping each other.
However phpBB can be installed from cpanel > Addon Scripts (version 2.0.19)
So you will also have to upgrade it to the latest version by downloading changed files.
Yes definitely upgrade your forums,
in fact subscribe to their forums upgrade notice.

that would be
<?php include("/home/yourcpanelusername/config.php"); ?>
which links to the config.php file and the file is located above your public_html folder.
The www is a symbolic link to your public_html folder
Most ftp programs have a place for a remote directory
you normally put public_html there.
If you leave it blank you should be taken to your root folder (/home/cpanelname/)
Not familiar with osc
but be sure the database config wherever it is is set up something like this.
host: localhost
database: yourCpanelName_databaseName
user: yourCpanelName_databaseUser
password: mypassword
* Note password is just as the password,
do not add the CpanelName to it.
Welcome to the forum, Brad
Did you install from your cpanel?
or download and install it your self,
if so the install instructions should have mentioned
creating a database, a database user , adding user to the database.
