RE: [cobalt-users] Meta-Verify Errors - URGENT

All your virtual sites details are in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf, so before 
doing any changes make a backup copy of that file.

Or better to make a backup of all server configs as below:

Under the /home directory make a directotry called backup then:

cd /
tar -cpvz -f /home/backup/etc.tar.gz etc

cd /
tar -cpvz -f /home/backup/var.tar.gz var

cd /
tar -cpvz -f /home/backup/root.tar.gz root

cd /usr/
tar -cpvz -f /home/backup/usr-admserv.tar.gz admserv

cd /usr/
tar -cpvz -f /home/backup/usr-local.tar.gz local

cd /home/log/
tar -cpvz -f /home/backup/home-log-httpd.tar.gz httpd

cd /home/
tar -cpvz -f /home/backup/home-spool.tar.gz spool

cd /home/
tar -cpvz -f /home/backup/sites.tar.gz sites

Also you may start entering data for sites that are not important and see what 
you get.  I think any new entry will over-write the existing info.
