- That's quite simple:
- Just run bindfix on your old server, this produces net$*.OLD files, these
- are the files containing the bindery. Now you can copy them to your new
- server into the system directory, run bindrest and the bindery is there
- again. The users are not afflicted by this method, but be prepared to
- install your printservers again.
- If you want to save the login scripts, printer definitions of your users,
- run bindfix again on your new server, this produces the SYS:MAIL directories
- for every user, then copy the login scripts etc. If you do it the other way
- round, there might be problems.

- Hope this helps
