I upgraded successfully from 2.08 to 2.09 without erasing any files and successfully preserved all of my settings.

Secondly, I want to upgrade my current 2.07 version to 2.08. I "think" I noted on the 2.07 install that the first steps are basically to delete the essential nessus files before the script compiles and does the install on the new files. I also noted an uninstall-nessus script, haven't tried it or looked at it. I want to preserve existing users and rules when I update if possible, can I just run the install script for 2.08 and expect everything to update? or should I uninstall and start from scratch (presumably the same rules will work with any UID. What's the general procedure for upgrading?
