ISSUE:
There are three methods to migrate from a 3.x NetWare product to NetWare 4.11.
The first method is Migrating using DSMIGRATE. This is a Windows-based
migration that contains both a Bindery migration and a File migration. The
second method uses a Dos based migrate.exe utility. This utility allows you to
migrate the bindery, files, and trustees all at once, or one at a time. The
third method is using Novell Migration Wizard. This uses a GUI interface that
walks you through the entire migration process.
To upgrade an existing NetWare 4.xx server to 4.11, you can use Migrating
using the Migration Wizard' or Migrating from 4.x to 4.11 with hardware
upgrade. Both of these options use the DSMAINT program.
