Yes, the restore script uses the same SiteWorx user name as the original account. If the old box did not have the Jailed Shells installed/enabled and the new one does then the actual path to your files will change from /home/ to /chroot/home/ but since /home is symlinked to /chroot/home you will not have any problems. NOTE: This is only applicable to InterWorx to InterWorx transfers. Other panels will have a totally new path based upon the first 8 characters of the domain name and the domain name itself. If you are importing a site running a php script which accesses a database, please be aware that if you are importing from a different control panel that all of your database and database user names will have changed. It will be necessary to manually edit the configuration files for these scripts with the new database names.
