Can this board be set up on free server sites such as geocities and others like that?

If they support PHP and mySQL. Then yes :)
But I think they don't support it. :(

I don't believe it can, since I'm not familiar with any free hosts that offer MySQL. If you find one that does (I have no idea where to start looking though), then as long as they also have PHP3 or PHP4 installed, then it should work.
But like I said, I don't know of any free hosts that do offer MySQL.

Doh, I guess someone replied before me, heh.

I believe you could possibly if you really look around for the hosts that can help you out. I believe you could use a normal free host, and then find a free mysql server (I believe I have seen a couple out there). They most likely are not very reliable and I personaly would not recommend that option, but it may work out for some.

Sign up with http://www.spaceports.com . They support PHP & Mysql, you just have to send mysql@spaceports.com an e-mail asking them to setup a database.

http://www.xodox.com offers PHP and mySQL, too.
But unfortunately they have no free accounts at the moment :(

It does not say anywhere on the spaceports site that they support PHP or MySQL.
Also, I dont think you can use virtual domain name hosting, or front page, and probably not all the web mail and other nifty cgi code.
