Hello friends,
I have a question about MSSQL Server Databases.
I have two working clone of DotNetNuke 4.4.1. (and they have same modules/versions) installed.
Clone 1 has been brought from Godaddy hosting, and now located at my home pc.
Clone 2 is fresh install with new content added/optimized.
I want to develop my website on my localhost and then upload it back to Godaddy. (I'm using Evotiva Backupscript)
The question is how can i bring users (without losing password/profile information) Clone 1 to Clone 2. I have 700 users and i dont wanna lose them.

You may ask "you wanna make this"? Because Clone 1 has some problems with database and i need to use fresh database.

What i have to handle this task.
Windows Server 2003 Virtual Machine.
SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition installed on Virtual Machine
I have full access to SQL Server Management Studio and other tools. Can someone assist me or provide me a guide for moving users across databases?

Thanks in advance

Note: I used search function at here but i got timeout errors. :(

The one application can read the user accounts of the other as long as the validation and decryption keys are the same in the web.config.  So I would say that first you update the one application to match the validation keys, then it is a fairly simple SQL Merge to bring the users and other needed data over from the one application to the other.
