We are traveling from Prague to Salzburg via Vienna. The train from Prague arrives at Sudbanhof and the train to Salzburg leaves from Westbanhof. How should be get between and how long should we allow for this?

I hope you know that going via Vienna is a detour. Prague-Ceske Budejovice-Linz-Salzburg is the direct way and you don%26#39;t need to change train stations.
The way to go between Südbahnhof and Westbahnhof is tram 18 which needs 17 mins from Süd to Westbahnhof. (+ about 10 mins at each station for changing from/to trains). Mind that you need to get a seperate tram ticket! (€ 2,00 from the ticket machine behind the driver, € 1,50 from tabac-stores, ticket machines, newsagents).
Why don%26#39;t you go via Ceske Budejovice and Linz?

If you decide to go this route-
it is an easy transfer from Sudbahnhof to Westbahnhof.
Exit the train station by main entrance cross the street to streetcar stop for the #18 direction Westbahnhof streetcar #18- takes you directly to Westbahnhof 15 - 20 minutes time
no transfers. the #18 will stop in front of the Westbahnhof. easy access to train in 5 minutes after leaving streetcar.

You could also take a local train bounding for %26#39;Hütteldorf%26#39;, where almost all westbound trains (except EC and ICE) call. Make sure if your trains is believed to make a stop there.
As already mentioned before, taking tram #18 would be the most convenient choice because no transfer is necessary and you can see some spots of Vienna.
