change forum subdirectory

Hello,
What is the correct procedure to change the forum subdirectory under which vanilla 2.0.x is installed?
E.g.: http://somesite.com/smallforum becomes http://somesite.com/bigforum.
If this is documented, where can we find the howto?
Please let us know!
Kind regards,
Udo

Simply rename the directory it's installed in.
I would also set up a 301 redirect from the old path to the new one to not break old links.

If you change your forum folder, make sure to delete the ini files (NOT folders) in the cache folder.
Oh, and another thing:
You may also have to change the RewriteBase in your .htaccess if you modified it before.

Thanks for the responses. This is all?
In that case it looks doable.
