I second the forum proposal. For a personal pet project we also implemented 
a forum on which new dormitory residents could request and receive support 
on their internet connection. There was not other source of support and the 
whole project worked like a charm.

I would suggest to use phpBB <www.phpbb.com> though as an open source 
alternative to bazookaboard as this particular forum software will be 
quickly overwhelmed by the amount of material. If needed I'm of course 
willing to help out setting up phpbb.

sincerely,
Paul
