I know it means up a level, up a level, and then in the backups folder, but I don't know up from what folder exactly. I'm looking for an explanation on this, please.

In that example, it is two levels up from your absalute server root.

But you want it to work away from public access and not in public_html.

That isnt so safe.

I know I posted it here some pages back, but for me and my server it is something like this:

"../backups/"

Do a search for my post in this thread, not too many pages back, but keep in mind many server are different enough, so not one setting is workable for everyone. Took me many experiments to figure out what works for me.
