Sorry for the late response on this...  Been WAY too busy...

We have a client running Urchin 3 on Solaris, migrating to Urchin 5 on
Windows.  We've tried to reach Urchin, and my good tech support is all
gone... Really really too bad.  Anyway, it appears there is no migration
path -- the OS differences being the problem, not the version numbers.
(Big-endian vs. Little-endian issues).

I think we're stuck getting the client to collect their last quarter's worth
of web traffic data at the old host, and then it all goes away, as Urchin
folks have been jerks about responding, and there is no online documentation
that would seem to indicate that what we need to do is possible.  Strange...
A platform-specific database package, in this day and age... Sad.

Sad too that Urchin software division is singing their swan song at this
point... With no support, it's a dead product for us.  Oh well...

Thanks for the responses everyone!

Marc
