I may need to give more info tomorrow morning, but so that you are not held
up here is what I have off the top of my head.
Your web.config should be set to use the SQL Provider for the authentication
of users. You will need to work out the connection string, but should be
able to do everything as you say by backup and replace.
You should copy the <membership><provider> section from the
web.config.template file which has all the settings except for the
<connection string> as I say you need to work out (but it will be similar to
what you have for the Management Studio). Also see the referenced Scott Gu
article for some detail.
Your web.config for authentication should have
<authentication mode="Forms" />
<authorization>
<allow users="*" />
</authorization>
Your flexwiki.config should look like
<configuration>
<FederationConfiguration>
<AuthorizationRules>
<Rule Type="Allow" Action="Edit" Principal="all" />
<Rule Type="Allow" Action="ManageNamespace"
Principal="role:WikiManagers" />
</AuthorizationRules>
</FederationConfiguration>
</configuration>
