Mobile Web Server backup: how to do it ?

Discussion for Mobile Web Server

I am runnong Nokia Web Server on my Nokia N96 and I was wondering if someone knew how to backup the whole server and its content before formatting the internal memory and being able to restore it ?
I miss this feature quite a lot and prevents me from relying too much on that great application because of the possibility to loose all the pages, comments, etc... in case of formatting the device.
Another point: I am considering getting the N97 to replace my N96 as soon as it is released to the market. How could I transfer my whole mobile server without loosing anything ?

Thanks for any advice.

What you'd want to do is make sure that the MWS is not running, and then simply copy over to a memory card the WebServer > Data folder. This will contain all of you posts and many of your logs and settings.

If you have done anything custom with the MWS, such as a modified welcome page, custom themes, etc., you will want to back those up separately to the memory card as well. Restoring anything done custom though is a bit of a tedious process of making sure you put things in the right places though.
