Hi There I think the first thing you do before you make a mysql dump of the old database is to log into the old Rivendell system 1.x.x version and change the rdadmin log in password to blank (no password) I believe Riv 1.x.x stores the rdadmin password differently from Riv 2.x.x. Otherwise you might block yourself out. I think someone else might have documented having to do this. Many thanks Geoff Barkman
