Learning some about the idiosyncrasies of PHP / MySQL / UBBT

Not completed with testing but it appears I need to do in this order.

MySQL changed how passwords are stored in 4.1 so you have to use a special
setting to tell MySQL to store the password in the old format for now.

1. Backup everything
2. Shut down MySQL
3. Manual install of MySQL 5.0.27
4. Set database password back to old method
5. Install UBBT 7.01 and configure
6. Run UBBT import scripts from 6.5x to 7.01
7. Verify new UBBT is working good
8. Back everything up again
9. Manually install PHP 5.20 and configure
10 Test New UBBT
11 Reset password to new format for MySQL
11 Re-open the board to the public.
 
Can't upgrade to PHP 5.20 till later after the install of 7.01 as 6.5x doesn't understand some of the major changes of PHP.

Might be some minor tweaks/changes along the way but overall the above should get us going.
 
Once I have it working on my local box I'll retore back to the original and try
the whole upgrade process again to make sure before proceeding forward on the live system.
