quick newbie question vb3 -> VB3

[appage21]

i luckily backed up my database recently before my previous server crashed

i've installed a new vb3 on a different server, now i almost have impex all set up im just not sure where i should upload my backed-up database to on my server and what i should do to the impexconfig.php section regarding the source database

my backed up database is named vbulletin.sql, what should i do to this part of the impexconfig.php

sourceexists = true

sourcedatabasetype = mysql
sourceserver = localhost
sourceuser =
sourcepassword =
sourcedatabase =
sourcetableprefix =

Are you actually combining tewo forums, or do you want to restore your backup?? If the latter, then you do not need the import system. The recommended method to restore a database is here:

Do you have telnet or ssh access?
