Hi, all thanks for the advice. I am not so sure how much data has to be transfered, I suppose is everything, email accounts, user accounts, etc.
O.K. That might get a little more hairy... Being none too familiar with RH, one thing that might complicate matters slightly is that the RH users might all have separate groups... (AFAIK that's the default on RH, which it is not on SuSE) So just copying over the users' homes and preserving group info could land you with some ...well... side effects... :-P I'm no expert but IINM, migrating user accounts from one distro to another, is slightly more complicated than just copying the data over...
I will take a look today, because they called me yesterday night asking me for help so we will work today afternoon on that. So I am not really sure what is in the server and what should be transfer but I think is a lot of information, almost all.
What you might want to do, is geet an overview of the situation, and then start new threads for each "category" of the migration. Just a suggestion, but you might get better responses with a subject: for each... HTH Jon Clausen
