Woody,

Is there an "upgrade" option for install that will preserve all your
existing settings?

This is a good question. If you install a new Linux distribution over an
existing 
install from another vendor, how much of the existing settings(X-Window,
Sound, 
Card, ethernet, home directory contents, et. al.) can be preserved?

  Hi all --

  I have installed e-smith server and it's running great! However, I need
  to know how to migrate existing user directories and html pages from an
  old linux server to to the e-smith server with out having to manually
  recreate new users and web pages on the e-smith manager or changing from
  a pure RH directory structure to the modified. (That would mean having
  to contact each user to reenter new passwords, change untold number of
  http links, etc. -- an extremely major hassle.)

  E-Smith wants $135.00 for 90 days tech support and I don't have that at
  present.

  Any ideas would be greatly appreciated, I will pay $30.00 reward to
  person who can provide the best answer.
