oops, borked my forum (solved)

Update: Nvm, got it solved... One of my programmers just had to remind me to RTFM:



Hi all.

I got into a mess.

I just launched a second domain (gunreal.com, on top of my main one, deefrag.com... gunreal.com is run from the subfolder: deefrag.com/gunreal)... anyway, I have an SMF forum on my site, so I tried copying my deefrag.com/forum folder into gunreal.com/fourm, and all was good. I just figured I'd see if both forums would access the same mySQL database, and they did... so all was working fine and dandy. (not sure if I wanted to keep it that way, because some settings are duplicated across both forums and would have to be adjusted in both, but I was just experimenting)

Well, then something happened, and the whole thing got borked. I told the deefrag.com forum to use gunreal.com/forum as it's base, and I told gunreal.com to use itself. Well, that wouldn't work. My changes wouldn't go through. So, I tinkered with the url's a bit, trying to force each forum to use some different folder on my site (tried a couple things) and then I made the mistake of trying to force one of the forums to use gunreall.com (notice 2 l's in there) as it's base. Well, I don't own Gunreall.com... and so I can't access that forum anymore. And now I can't change the settings for either.

Bleh. What I'm trying to do now is dig through the server files and find the actual file that controls these settings, so I can set the URL's manually. Is there any way to do this that anyone knows? When I dig through deefrag.com via FTP, I can't find anything that seems related to mySQL or SMF outside of the public_html folder.

Any help is appreciated. (would be cool if my site had a backup/restore feature, but I don't see one. Lunarpages is my host, btw)

URL's are: www.gunreal.com/forum
and
www.deefrag.com/forum

Thanks!
