vBulletin config question

    At the beginning of the installation process, when asked to edit the config.php file, I got stumped when running into the code here:

    
    	//	****** TABLE PREFIX ******
    	//	Prefix that your vBulletin tables have in the database.
    $config['Database']['tableprefix'] = '';
    
    Code (markup):
    Can someone please tell me what this line is referring to?

    Cheers

    You can set a prefix for all the vB tables to have. Useful if you're installing more than one piece of software on the same database. Leave it blank or put in vb_ or something.

    I have reinstalled vBulletin and attempted the phpBB 2 impex import about 5-6 times now, each time experiencing timeouts during the import posts module.

    I am running the clean installed vBulletin forum on a VPS server so I'd be very suprised if memory capacity was an issue.

    What could I be possibly be doing wrong? I have attempted to import using a 200 post count, still with no success.

    Any help would be appreciated.
