absolute path question, from local to web

hi, i’ve been working on a local version of wordpress with imported moveable type entries. I have an absolute path question. looking at the existing site files on the server the previous web developer is using this absolute path with includes: /home/dailyser/public_html/

I’m going to install wordpress at the root of the site and would like to know if i need to make any adjustments to the ABSPATH settings in the wp-config file. I changed the absolute paths to images in my posts and template files to this format: /wp-content/uploads/…

So, would i need to change the wp-config file from

if ( !defined('ABSPATH') )
	define('ABSPATH', dirname(__FILE__) . '/');

to:

if ( !defined('ABSPATH') )
	define('ABSPATH', dirname(__FILE__) . '/home/dailyser/public_html/');

or should i just leave it alone?

Also, The client would also like me to install wordpress to temp directory first to review. I figured i could just upload wordpress temporarily folder called wordpress off of the root, but leave a copy of the wp-content folder at the root.

is this the tutorial that i should follow? http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Moving_WordPress#Moving_WordPress_Within_Your_Site

Thank you in advance.
