There are numerous forum scripts out there. For a free one to get started with, try www.phpbb.com

Most - phpBB (free), vBulletin (what DaniWeb uses), and Invision - are php based. vBulletin uses a MySQL database. phpBB defaults to MySQL but to the best of my knowledge includes compatibility with numerous databases.

You will need a linux web server with PHP and MySQL to run it.
