Hi there,

The manual is currently un-downloadable at the moment, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to do this. How can you make copies of a vps and move them around to other hosts?

I've tried various methods of copying what's under the Machine directory, and have encountered massive fail.

Any input would be greatly appreciated!

This will work until the VirtualBox site is restored.

If you have VirtualBox ver 2.2.2 you can simply export it and then use it on another Host. Click on the VirtualBox program and then export. You should make a list of all the settings that you have on the VM just in case the import on the other machine does not pick it up properly.
