Default Direct Admin & MySQL databases...

I have a number of domains and a number of MySQL databases running things like PHPBB and Joomla.

I'm only allowed 5 and I want to try out SMF, so I have to delete one. How do I know which one to delete, they all have random names.

Any ideas?

Also, if I want to backup an entire Joomla installation to take it down but be able to put it back up later, how do I do it, anyone know?

There's a site backup option within Directadmin

Regarding your databases - check the config files - they should let you know which one is which

If you're only allowed 5 this shouldn't be too much of a problem

Most installs these days allow you to add a prefix to the tables for what you are installing.

hence you could have
joomla_tablenames
smf_tablenames

Just an idea ... but its what I'd do if I was limited ...

Either way its a good idea to do make a dump of your database from time to time
