I had a server crash recently and lost my gallery.  Now I've created a back-up of the entire gallery directory and and backed up the db into a sql file.  I want to practice restoring the gallery into a nother domain.  My db was named gallery but I cannot use that db name because it is aleady in use (by my production version)  THere fore I want to change the db name for the practice back-up version.  If I change the name of the db, are their places in the script files where the db name aslo needs to be changed?  If so which files?  Also, does on of the php files contain the info for the db username, password etc... if so where?

Better yet is there a tutorial available to do a restore.  Again, I have a production version running so I can't keep the db file named "gallery"

I need help.  Thank you much.
