How can I export and import Subsonic-settings from one installation to a new installation on a different server so that I keep the users (and associated passwords for those users)?

Yeah. I've been trying for years to do this. Sometimes successfully, other times not so much. There isn't much documentation available but I've found the following to work.
You need SSH access.
You need to know where your subsonic installation exists
Once you have that you can issue the copy command;
cp -R /(NAS)/(subsonic location)/var/db/subsonic/ /(copy to location/ i.e. /(NAS)/Subsonic_backup/
then you just reverse the process.
Sorry if that's not much help to you.
