message boards and chat rooms

[kerux]

Does anyone know of a good free chat room I can use for a church website? Or, is there any message boards that are free and come with a chat room installed?

Installatron (http://www.installatron.com/) lists PhpMyChat (http://www.phpheaven.net/projects/phpmychat/rubrique4.html) and PhpBB (http://www.phpbb.com/), as well as other options.

While Installatron isn't free, the other programs are, and you don't have to use Installatron to install them; you can install them yourself.

Note that Installatron will only work for you if you have admin/root level access to the server; it's not for resellers or site users.
