one thing i noticed is that on your new installation you will have to enable 
all module that you are currently using otherwise the settings will not be 
migrated.


i will be waiting for the new release before i proceed, as i am trying to setup 
a VMware Ebox (mail, file shares, & PDC) on top of another ebox (traffic only).

Nicolas, thanks for your reply. 

I'm using the Ebox/Ubuntu live CD installations
on both servers. The data I'm worried the most about is DNS and DHCP settings.
User-specific data is not a real issue as we're not using Ebox as our main
fileserver yet. We don't use Ebox' email either. 
Our entire network relies on the DNS
and DHCP data (a lot of DHCP clients with a fixed IP) in Ebox so I can't
afford to lose that. Should I be okay in this scenario? 

By the way, I just read on the Ebox
site that 1.0 will be released today. Should I wait for that instead of
migrating to 0.12 today? 

Thanks again, 

Matthijs

it worked for me.
i was using the first ubuntu only installation, so only two versions difference.
if you are using a debian installation i would suggest wait for other to
reply.

additionally, if your users use a lot of storage, you could consider copying
the data independently of ebox backup.  and then restore ebox (configuration
and email).

Hi all,

Our current Ebox setup is a dedicated machine running a pre-0.12 ebox version.
I need to free that machine for other uses, so I'm planning on migrating
to a virtual server using the 0.12 release.
My question is:
Can I simply backup the settings from the current pre-0.12 setup and import
those into the new virtual 0.12 server? Or will this cause any nasty side
effects?

Thanks in advance,

Matthijs
