Your SBS prefs are in /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/prefs/server.prefs. The
prefs for the plugins are in
/var/lib/squeezeboxserver/prefs/plugin/*.prefs.

Although you could also copy the plugins themselves, I recommend
installing them via the Extension Downloader, and then applying your old
prefs to them. In brief:
1. install SBS on Win7 box
2. install plugins using Extension Downloader
3. stop SBS. This is very important. Don't just close the web ui --
stop SBS completely.
4. copy your old server.prefs over top of the new one
5. copy your old plugin prefs over top of the new ones
6. restart SBS

Also, check to make sure that Win7 reads the prefs files correctly. You
may have a problem with the end-of-line characters (lf in Linux, cr/lf
in Win). If so you should be able to open them and then re-save in
WordPad to convert the EOLs. As always, make sure SBS is stopped when
you do any editing or copying of prefs files.
