Server Related Question

First off Id like to say hello to everyone. Second I think I have this in the correct forum, If not I apologize.

My Question: I run a server mostly for friends and LAN play..What files or directories do I need to back up in order to keep players accts intact and the work they have done, for example in case i need to reformat my hard drive or a hacker attack (God forbid) I have ran other game servers before..ive read thru the read me files that came with the game and have found nothing that helps. Does anyone know? I really would hate for those that spend time on the server to lose their characters. I believe in making regular backups

Much Thanks

The character files are stored in in My Documents/My Games/Freelancer/Accts/Multi. Just backup the whole Multi folder to another location to back it up. It will only backup their progress up to that point in time.
