The board is disabled on first install to prevent spammers going wild with it 
right away.

I'm sorry that you're stumped, but the topmost section 
of /usr/share/doc/phpbb3/README.Debian tells you which steps to take to

I'm downgrading this to a wishlist to maybe ask the person installing the 
board for admin credentials during installation.
