I have been deleted by accident once before on my current host and lost all my styles and everything that I had and I don't want to take another chance incase it would ever happen again. I also have some mods done to the forum from vbulletin.org that I would like to not loose also. Can anyone tell me what files I really need to keep backed up just incase anything was to ever happen to my server. The hacks I added arent that big of a deal but the style I have is important and I dont really want to loose it I put a lot of time into it. Thanks!

So there isn't a set of files which store my style at all that I could backup? Also how do I backup my database?Comment

hello
I took like style of work for vb5.3.3 gradient, I made a lot of change, color, fonts so on, I took a buckup of my forum, I continue to make changes, I made an error and I could not go back,... -
Does anyone know how to backup forums using the backup utility on Rackspace? I don't want to create an entire disk image, just backup the database to install on a new server.
