Ok, I just did the switch. The key not to have to reconfigure everything is in 
the backup - of course ;-).

Here's what I've done to migrate from the old to the new .rpm file:

- log on as root
- remove the old version: rpm -e slimserver
- backup your configuration:
   mv /usr/local/slimserver ~
- install SC7: yum localinstall Squeeze...rpm
- shut down SC if it's been started
- edit your server.prefs file to remove any reference to the old slimserver 
installation
- cp -R /path/to/backup/configuration/* /var/lib/squeezecenter/prefs/
- restart SC7 & watch /var/logs/squeezecenter/server.log for error messages

This got me up and running with the existing configuration. Now I'm waiting for 
the initial scan to finish.

Tested this on a SME Server 7 (CentOS 4.x based).
