[Clug-tech] Drupal restore

[John Jardine]

Ok - seems to be working, restored my 'backup' database to site5 and
with some minor tweaking like running the cron job manually it hasn't
fallen over.  The one thing that is missing is all of the files that
were parts of the page.  I'm going to upload those manually and that
should sort that out.
