Microsoft claim 255, but when using an IIS web server with the JET database driver, you usually have a pool of around 20 shared with all websites that use the application pool the site is within.

However, when it comes to forum software the number of connections is not the important facter when it comes to Access.

Access is a desktop database system, and so is unable to cope with anything more than light use.

When it comes to forum software the amount of read and writes placed on the database is quite high. This means that Access is often unable to cope with being the backend of a forum and often becomes corrupted if you have more than a handful of users.

Access also places allot of strain on the web server, so many web hosts will have a limit of around 10MB to 20MB for a maximum size of an Access database.

mySQL and SQL Server are both very good and can handle a high amount of active users and over a million posts.

The simplest way to backup your SQL Server DB is to use the SQL Management Tools to create a backup. It's stored as a .bak file.
