[dba-SQLServer] Restoring Database from Another server

I sent this to the general list but it seems more appropriate for this one.

I am looking at the probability of needing to restore a database from 
my development computer to a client site (overwriting the old 
possibly corrupt version).

There are users and permisions set up on both computers (they should 
be identical)

Are there any things I should be aware of that may cause problems (eg 
user and role settings not being compatible across the two computers?)
