Hello,

If you use default configs and settings for software and templates, then the only thing you need is to follow the guide: https://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=57

Directadmin uses the following paths: https://www.directadmin.com/paths.html if you want to copy customized configs/settings.

Hi zEitEr,

Thank you so much, and I have question: Will I have to copy all the data in https://www.directadmin.com/paths.html through the new server?

You don't need to copy config files if they are built on default templates and have never been customized manually by anybody.

It just moves the default settings, Can I move:
- Let's Encrypt for all user and port:2222
- Nginx HTTP Proxying
- Mariadb

Or I need to reinstall? Thanks zEitEr so much!

It's expected that Let's Encrypt certs are copied with backups. So when you create a backup of an user with domain which has a Let's Encrypt cert it should be restored fine without need to do anything manually. This should be true for default settings. If you use 3rd party modules, scripts to manage certs from Let's Encrypt then it should be treated specially.
