RE: upgrading the mails and password from one pc to another

[Tim Hunter]

I just did this a few weeks ago.   tar and gzip your vpopmail dir tar and gzip your qmail dir copy all the relevant info for qmail and vpopmail from /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow save them somewhere to be transferred to the new computer   create the qmail and vpopmail users on the new box with the same uid/gid if possible tar xvzf each of dirs to their proper locations run make setup check from the qmail dir reinstall the latest versions of vpopmail, qmailadmin, and sqwebmail   Be Happy.   I don't think vpopmail/qmail supports oracle yet, I would like it if it did eventually but don't need it now. Probably wouldn't be too hard to port from mysql. -----Original Message----- From: vinient [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, December 06, 2000 12:29 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: upgrading the mails and password from one pc to another hi all   did any one know how do we migtrate from one pc to another pc with latest vpopmail and qmail and sqwebmail   my setup is qmail vpopmail qmailadmin sqwebmail     now iam planning to upgrade the server and move the users to new server with out loosing data and passwords.   second how do i use oracle server from diferent PC and connect vpopmail for creating users and take authentication   thanks for advance help
