Moving sugar installation

[alejandrops]

Hi, I installed the rpath installation of sugarCRM and I already loaded tons of data in the installation. The owners of the company now want to install SUgarCRM in a windos2000 server (god knows why!) and I installed the bitrock installer and is working OK.
How can I copy the current Install from my rpath linux to win 2000?
tried making a backup inside the sugarcrm admin module and copied the files inside the apache directory, but didn't work. should I make a backup of the mysql database?
can anyone tell me what to do?

thanks!!!

I've moved Sugar before. List of steps that I usually take:

**Zip all the file in Sugar into a zip file
**Do a mysqldump of the database
**Extract the Sugar zip file to the new place
**Run the mysqldump to create database and add data
**Change the config file in Sugar to reflect the new location...
