Roy,

I know nothing about cPanel but others here probably use it.  If your 
provider is using one horde for all his clientes, I would hope that 
when he upgrades horde that he will keep the prefs backend.  If you 
have your own installation of horde included in hosting, you would want 
to backup your backends before the upgrade. Have you discussed this 
with your provider?

Good luck,
