If you can't do that, then at least password-protect the folder via htaccess.

Thanks a lot for the tip bro

but when I did that and ran the backup, I got the following error message:

Done

I created a folder named backups in the root of public_html

what do you think I should do?

Are your forum files under the forums directory or in the domain root itself?

I have it set up like this:

vb4_db_backups
public_html

Then you can use what I posted earlier but make sure the folder is chmodded to 777.

Is there a way to set this up so everytime it backs up, it overwrites the existing file instead of creating a new file everytime?

Change the filename date setting to something that doesnt change often, like Year, or Year+Month.

I have created a database backup

let's say I wipe my forums entirely and want to reinstall it from scratch, how do I restore this database backup to have all my members, posts, threads restored?
