Converting backups?

[shib]

Is it possible to take a plesk backup and convert it to a cPanel back up? Currently my host switch from a cPanel server to a Plesk server and I would like to move back to a cPanel host.

Can it be done with out loosing any data?

To my knowledge, someone correct me if im wrong, but i havent seen a utility that will allow you to do this. Your other option of course would be to unpack the plesk backup and restore it manually via ftp.

Does anybody know the name of this utility?

Its actually not a utility that you would use. Depending on the type of of file you have (ie .zip, .tar.gz) you should be able to open it with a utility such as winrar and then upload the files via a ftp client (filezilla is a freebie) then manually restore the databases via phpmyadmin.

I think you have misunderstood them, what the mean is they do not know of anything that does what you need.

Oh ok, like I can unload the backup with winrar and then upload everything.

Thanks guys.
