I used raqbackup.sh 2.2 to backup my raq 4i server. it did a great job,
following the instructions at the website. however, it didn't get everything
on the raq 4i. when I restored to the new raq, areas were missing, such as
/etc/ftpusers and various other files I modified or added. Is there a way to
get everything off the old raq and move it to the new raq?
