It is supposed to be on a directory called /testvb/ which is protected in some manner against public viewing.

create a subdomain and move your same copy of main site database to that private subdomain which can be used as test forum...

Ok I understand that, but what I am saying is I don't want my forum on the test board because I dont want to test it out on my current site forums, I would rather make the sub-domain then upload 3.7 onto that and test out stuff.
