I have that and SQlite. But where can I find out how much space the forum's data (members, topics etc) is using on my server?

SQlite on MySQL? yes. I figured out how to tranfer all the data. By moving the config.php. All I need to know now is how to find out how much space the forum is taking up.

You can see how much space the forum database takes up in the info box in the admin interface (admin_index.php).

Hmm. SQLite and MySQL are two completely different databases. Are you sure you mean SQLite?

Okay, whoops. I don't have much experience with servers and such. MySQL.
Oh and think the answer to what OS is Apache 1.3...If that's what you mean.
