phpBB was really easy to set up, if you already have apache & mysql running.
IIRC...
1. add a database & give the apache user permissions to it
2. unpack the phpBB download in your document root.
3. follow the very simple installation instructions. (involes changing permissions on a file or so, then loading a page in your browser, following some directions there, etc.)
