1.) Can the DSN be labelled as anything else? Because I've found nothing,
nothing resembling a DSN. Is it also known as the database host?
Not sure what that means?

2.) "Prefix for tables in database". I clearly need to change this to something else, any ideas?
You can leave that to whatever the default is set as. If you have to name it anything you should just name it something that would be easily identifiably (i.e. phpbb_ or forums_).

3.) "Server port" and "database port" are one and the same, right? If not, where do I find a value for the server port?
Not sure I follow that one either. Perhaps they use different terminology than I'm used to.

4.) Is the "script path" where the forum is located on the domain?
Yes, but it's not necessarily a URL. It may be a path. Paths look different, something like: vhost/www/users/domainname.com/forums
Are you sure your server has PHP set up? If not, that would be an obvious problem.
If this is your first experience with installing something of this nature then prepare yourself for a treat.
