[support] Upgrading from 4.5.5 to 6.13

[Shai Gluskin]

Update,

PHP is 4.4.9 and MySQL is 5.0.41 which is good news. Still poking around.

What took me longest so far was locating the password to the db. Found it in
includes/conf.php. No settings.php back in the 4.5 days. I'm a newbie at
three years :)

I'll keep you posted. Again, thanks for the help.
