Thank you all! This is perfect. My user count is very small so manually moving them will be a snap.

It does work on Windows 64bit OSes. I have it installed it on 2008R2 server. The installation ran without any problems. I've already got a few users running on BES Express. Depending on your user size it might be easier to manually move the users over to the new BES. I know the migrate tool is not supported with migrations from BESv4.1 to BES Express v5, but I hear it works. That's where I'm currently at. Be sure to read the install guide and the admin guide, there is a lot of good info in both guides. Good Luck.

Personally, I think you need to look into BES Express, you don't need to buy licenses for that. It's a replacement for BPS, but also gets you up to the 5.x level. From: bes-admins-boun...@dataoutages.com [mailto:bes-admins-boun...@dataoutages.com] On Behalf Of Richard Lawley Sent: Thursday, January 20, 2011 1:56 PM To: bes-admins@dataoutages.com Subject: [Bes-admins] Moving to 64bit server I am nowhere near a BES expert. I barely got it installed and working, let alone administering it. Good thing it just works and doesn't need any attention. We currently have BPS ver. 4.1.4.17 running on Server 2003 32bit Exchange server. I'm going to be replacing the server in the next couple of weeks to a Windows 2008 R2, which is a 64bit OS. Will I be able to install that version on the new server, or do I have to buy a new version of BPS?
