What is the easiest way to upload an existing config to a 7705 SAR?

Depends if you want to completely replace the existing config and reload or modify the existing config in-place.

Assuming a 7705 is the same as a 7x50, the command "show bof" will show you the name of the file where the config is stored (by default config.cfg).
You can scp (SSH secure copy) a new file over the top of the existing one then reload the router to completely replace the existing config.

For in-service modifications, scp a file of the commands you want to execute to the flash then from the CLI use the "exec <file-name>" command.
