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. 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. Thanks Jose Ed Harrison wrote:

This will preserve all file ownership, dates and permissions.
Make sure you analyze what and where you want to copy FROM and TO, so that it ends up at the same place on the new server.
