Rebuilding a WSUS with existing database

Hello, I was hoping to get some information on rebuidling the wsus server with existing database files.

I am running windows 2003 R2 SP2 and use registry settings on the clients to connect back to wsus server. I have a copy of exisiting SUSDB.mdf and .ldf files from previous install but i did not properly detach them I just renamed the old folder to save them just in case. I would like to rebuild the server from scratch. Can you you point me to the right directions.

Another concern I have is that since I am using registry settings for clients to check for updates and had various different groups created on the old WSUS, how can I make sure when I rebuild the database I have the same old groups and clients report into their respective groups please? Many thanks for your assitance and advise.
