Joomla! Discussion Forums

I went from SMF to phpbb back to SMF and now I'm back to phpbb.
I have a working phpbb forum with lots of mods and a joomla site that I want to join together.

I have tried them all and read this forum from top to bottom.
I have nothing but problems with this.

Has anyone had any success with this???
If so I would be more then happy to pay someone to get this working for me.
Email me at mcombot@aci.on.ca let me know your price and how long this will take to do.
I really would like to get this done ASAP

Thanks
