Thanks for the pointer, I've had a look and the fr.centos.org site looks nice. I've also checked the fluxBB project itself and it look like the 1.3 version will have hooks that allow you to write some sort of plugin that allows you to link it with LDAP. So it is a option, although phpBB has that feature built-in which makes getting support for it somewhat easier :-)
I'd like to add a +1 for punBB (or now apparently fluxBB). One of the largest Dutch Linux forums (currently ~300,000 posts, 6,000 users) I used to be a moderator for, previously used phpBB. There were a lot of problems with vulnerabilities, posts that were disappearing, and performance. I suggested to migrate that forum to punBB (since I had good experiences with it), and since that migration all major problems disappeared. Pun was a lot simpler, and offered less features, but certainly worked better and faster.
Take care, Daniel
