This is simply how you want the file identified after its created so you could call it "my really long name for back up" and it will appear as "my really long name for back up - MyForum.Sql.zip"....etc

the example shown here is for a folder called backups and will be above public_html level (i.e the folder that houses public_html) but you can have the folder wherever you want and change the path, and yes the folder should b CHMOD 777 which again is why it should be at /home level rather than /public_html level

Thanks Paul for your time. I just want to make sure 100% its done correctly and it doesn't hurt having the info here for others to use.

Ignore Innodb, if you have not specifically changed these tables in phpmyadmin or via ssh then they will be MYISAM by default.
