can i reset a Server Installation to start over without reinstalling?

Is it possible to delete all the (or some) Prefs of an Server-Installation to start over the Configuration without reinstalling the System? (i have no second computer and an iMac without CD-ROM).

Mac mini (Late 2009), OS X Server

If you're on Mountain Lion, it's pretty easy. Just drag Server.app out of the Applications folder. This will disable all of the server processes. Then you can remove everything in /Library/Server. That will remove all of the saved state, effectively returning you to a clean install of server.
