Does anybody here have any experience either with Kwiki or our cgibox?

Can anybody suggest an answer to any of the questions I asked Colin
below?

(Or more generally, how do you refer to a script on the cgibox?)

OK, I've registered to use the cgibox.  I see from
/cgihome/colinj/apache/kwiki that setting up such a thing is pretty
easy, just a matter of copying some files.  This leaves just a few
questions:

(1) which files do I need to copy?

(2) what is the URL of the resulting Wiki?

(3) the cgibox FAQ says "don't store mission-critical stuff on
    cgibox".  How seriously should I take this?  Can/Should I back up my
    kwiki database on a non-volatile file system?  What should I do if
    I want to run a wiki for a mission-critical application?
