[cobalt-users] Moving files from RaQ to RaQ



I was just thinking (uh-oh).  The only way that people have mentioned to
move sites from one RaQ to another is to manually create each site and user
in the user interface.  Well, I have over 150 sites and over 400 users that
I would like to transfer over.  I'm thinking shortcut.

My theory is this:  What if you tar-ed and gzip-ed all of the directories
and files in the /home directory and all of the directories and files in the
/etc directory, and transferred these to the new server and then restored
them.  This would restore the sights in the same order with the same users
and you would have the exact same configuration (specifically httpd.conf,
virtusertable and password files) that you had on the former server.  Would
this show up in the user interface?  Would this work?

I realize I'm showing my ignorance, but I would like to see if anyone has
any thoughts about this.
