I did a similar thing not too long ago.
It is near impossible to actually get phpbb to run _in_ WordPress, but it is easy to fake it.
All you have to do, is create a new theme for phpbb that looks exactly like your WP theme.
My example:

Posted 6 years ago #Im wanting to achieve the below:
<img src="http://www.vini.co.uk/uploads/forumpress.jpg">
[php]<?php
/*
Template Name: Forum
*/
?><?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="main"><<<< INSERT FORUM INCLUDE?? CODE?? WHAT?? >>>>
</div>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
<?php get_sidebar(); ?></body>
</html>
[/php]the above, is a blank template for my wordpress theme, is there anything i could include in there to get the forum looking like the picture?
an iframe does the job i want, but iframes are rubbish. i dont want the scroll bars and hassle that they bring.
ive tried an include but all the links and css goes to pot for the forum.
any ideas on a way to do this? prefiously people have mentioned <div> but this means nothing to me.
the forum & wp are on the same box/space, (forum = /forum &&& wp = / (root))
could someone show me an example, or guide me through this? surely its not that difficuly?
