My forum was working great. When new users would register they would get these errors:
Warning: fsockopen(): php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: No address associated with hostname (is your IPV6 configuration correct? If this error happens all the time, try reconfiguring PHP using --disable-ipv6 option to configure) in /usr/home/web/users/xxxxxxxx/html/fforum/www/theme/default/register.php on line 1286
Warning: fsockopen(): unable to connect to :25 in /usr/home/web/users/xxxxxxxx/html/fforum/www/theme/default/register.php on line 1286
ERROR: stmp server at is not avaliable
Additional Problem Info: 0 -> Unknown error: 0
Thought I would rebuild the theme. But First I UnLocked the files. Before I was able to rebuild the theme I get the dreaded Internal Server Error.
Got Torque?

The problem you are seeing is as far as I can tell the result of PHP being unable to connect to your e-mail server. This is done by the forum when it tries send the e-mail confirmation after the account creation.
Make sure that the SMTP server server you are using is working correctly.

I will look in to my SMTP server.
Do you have any ideas as to why I start getting Internal Server Error up when I go to "unlock" my files?
thanks

It boils down to a permission thing again. When the form is locked the permissions are set one way and when they are un-locked they are another. My problem is when I go to un-lock the forum, the permission settings don't allow me access to the forum via the admin cp. Is this by design or is the problem with my hosting service. I want to switch hosting services but want the move of my board to be as painless as possible, so I was trying to get it to 100% before I make the move.
as always thanks for the great support

Sounds like a hosting problem... But before moving you may want to see why is that happening. Maybe the files inside adm/ are not accessible to the webserver and that's why you cannot access any admin control panels.

Is there any reason I can't just copy ALL the files and Dirs in my fforum Dir to a "test" Dir to do some testing and so forth. That way I won't mess up my working forum.
Can 2 fud forums send data to the same data base?

As long as you backup all the files & all the database data that should be safe.
As for your second question, yes that can be done but will require some GLOBALS.php tinkering.
