this has been asked a lot here...do a search to see them. You probably will not find a tutorial on making a forum you will need to break the forum into pieces and then search for tutorials on the pieces (i.e. Who's online)

I have started to create a forum using ASP.Firstly you need to connect to a database, i am using MS SQL.Then you need to make tables i.eTblCatsTblForumsTblTopicsTblPostson the main page you display all of the cats, then inside the cats you display all of the forums that have the affilated catid.then have a link on each forum to different page, maybe named viewtopics.aspthen show all topics with the affilated forumidthen you have a link on each topic, which goes to another page i.e viewthread.aspwhere you will display all of the posts witht he affilated topicidhope this helps :)

Don't forget a table for the users. And the user types (i.e Moderator, Admin, Poster, etc.).
