You can restore an SME server simply by restoring from a desktop backup. This is usefull for instance when upgrading a version (I used it to upgrade from 7.51 to 8.0). Restoring from a backup file is a quick and useful method for instance in VMware environments, since using USB disks or CD-rom or DVD adds complications you might not need.

In this mini-howto I will show howto restore a desktop backup to a new server. In stead of using an USB-stick we will transport the backup using SSH (scp or secure copy).
