Migrating from SuSE 9.3 to SuSE 10.1

We were migrating our server to the newest SuSE release. Based on previous bad experience we didn't want to upgrade the system, but instead install a completely new system and then migrate our data there. Here's the list of what we had to do to the default SuSE installation to migrate all our services and data:

• activate apache modules mode-perl & rewrite
• copy /etc/apache2/conf.d/backuppc.conf, /etc/apache2/conf.d/passwd and /etc/apache2/vhosts.d/yast2_vhosts.conf
• modify /etc/X11/xorg.conf adding our non-standard 1366x768 flat panel screen
• copy apache log files
• copy /etc/exports
• start nfs server
• add users with the correct uid (marzena 1000, jeltsch 1001, backuppc 1002, clemens 1003)
• copy /var/lib/mysql/*
• install backuppc (including chmodded /etc/init.d/suse-backuppc)
• copy kde wallets & gnupg preference folders
• rm -rf /srv/* and mount /dev/hda4 into /srv
• change /etc/apache2/uid.conf to user backuppc
• modify /etc/php/apache2/php.ini: memory_limit=64M, post_max_size=64M, upload_ax_filesize=128M
• activate NTP
• set /etc/hosts to: imac 192.168.0.4, michael-laptop 192.168.0.3
• copy /root/.ssh and /home/backuppc/.ssh
• create a ssh_login group and add all users but root, add line to /etc/ssh/sshd_config to allow only members of the ssh_login group (don't do this if the computer is a backuppc client!)
• delete known_hosts files for user backuppc
• start apache and mysql
