For this section:
$GB_PG["base_url"] = ""; /* e.g htpp://www.yourdomain.com/guestbook/img */

I have a question, what base URL do they want? The URL that goes straight to the image folder? Or just www.cmulambdas.com/guestbook, or do they want www.cmulambdas.com/guestbook/img

And just to make sure for the rest:
$GB_DB["dbName"] = "";
$GB_DB["host"] = "localhost";
$GB_DB["user"] = "root";
$GB_DB["pass"] = "";

I enter the database name and password within the quotes, but does the user have to be root? I can change the user to anything I want correct (as long as everything matches up in the database management in cPanel)...

Lastly, for this section:
$DB_CLASS = "mysql.class.php";
$TEC_MAIL = "you_at_your_domain_dot_com";
$GB_UPLOAD = "public";
$GB_TMP = "tmp";

Only thing I change is the mail one right, to webmaster@cmulambdas.com...

Thanks!!!
