List of directories needed to move ISPConfig 2

[PermaNoob]

Could someone make a list of the directories I need to backup to move ISPConfig to a new server?

I'm using ISPConfig 2 on Debian Etch

I'm using Duplicity to backup, and so far I have:

/root/ispconfig
/home/admispconfig
/var/www

and the mysql databases

I saw the thread about moving ISPConfig, but it's several years old and I don't have many of the directories mentioned.

Thanks in advance!

That's the thread I was referring to.

I don't have a /home/www/, and I thought I was missing some of the others so it appeared to be outdated.

So here's the list I have--is this all that's needed?

---------------------

/etc/passwd
/etc/shadow
/etc/group

Vhosts_ispconfig.conf

/etc/postfix/local-host-names
/etc/postfix/virtusertable

named.conf

the .conf files in /etc/proftpd/

all the pri.* zone files for domains that use the local dns

/var/www/

sql dumps of the MySQL databases

---------------

What about

/root/ispconfig/
/home/admispconfig/

Would it be useful to have them or do they contain nothing that the new installation won't have?

If you first install ISPConfig on the new server, these directories are already there.

OK, thanks for the help. I'm just trying to prepare for a disaster, in which case I would either restore my server with a new installation or order a new server and install there, which I think will be easier than trying to restore my old installation.

So I've got these series of commands which I execute in a single file for backing up:

cp /etc/passwd /disk2/backup1/ispconfigfiles
cp /etc/shadow /disk2/backup1/ispconfigfiles
cp /etc/group /disk2/backup1/ispconfigfiles
cp /etc/apache2/vhosts/Vhosts_ispconfig.conf /disk2/backup1/ispconfigfiles
cp /etc/postfix/local-host-names /disk2/backup1/ispconfigfiles
cp /etc/postfix/virtusertable /disk2/backup1/ispconfigfiles
cp /var/lib/named/etc/bind/named.conf /disk2/backup1/ispconfigfiles
cp /etc/proftpd/modules.conf /disk2/backup1/ispconfigfiles
cp /etc/proftpd/proftpd.conf /disk2/backup1/ispconfigfiles
duplicity --no-encryption /var/www file:///disk2/backup1/allsitesbackup

plus the MySQL databases (I'm using the Web Backup in ISPConfig for the 10 or so databases on my server--is there a reason I shouldn't do this?)

and all the pri.* zone files for domains that use the local dns.

Did I miss something?

I'd also copy /etc/proftpd/proftpd_ispcponfig.conf, but the rest looks good.
