Did you have the attachments stored in the database or the filesystem? If in the filesystem, then you are the only one who knows where you put them - it isn't a path that vbulletin set, it is a path that you had to manually set up yourself.

You can easily find the path that your site needs by viewing your php info from the admincp maintenance section.

At the bottom of the php info page, look in the last block which is "PHP Variables", check the following line:

_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"] /home/username/public_html

That line wil ltell you your path that is needed to set the attachments path to in the attachment manager section:
/home/username/public_html/attachments

It would be better to place them in a none public directory:
/home/username/attachments

We attempted to write a test file to /home/itilm/attachments, but we were unsuccessful. Please verify that the web server has write/delete permissions for this path.

In your ftp browser, you will need to chmod the attachments dir and its sub dirs to 777

You can also chmod the dir 777 via the cmd line in ssh
