Move user home directory to new server
I want to move multiple users home direcotry to new server, the only change is server and volume, there is no change on path. How can I do this? I tried NWadmin to modify multiple users, after I put in new volume and apply the change, the path have been overwirte, and become blank. I tried to put variable %username or %login_name, they won't pick it up.

Move User home directories to new volume on same server
Running NW65SP7. We would like to move our USER home directories from one NSS volume to another NSS volume on the same server. We have used the 3rd party NWCOPY utility in the past for large inter/intra server file copies and it seems to work good. Since NWCOPY allows us to pre-copy the data in smaller chunks at a convenient time and then do a smaller delta/synch copy when the final cutover is planned, we likely plan on using this utility in combination with some other utilities like HOMES to change the eDir home directory attributes and file rights.

Moving Directories to a new server
Here's my situation: I have a new file server. I used UImport to add all of my users to it and create their home directories (which gave them rights to the home directories at the same time). They all have home directories on the old server (the name of each individual home directory is the same on the old server as it is on the new server). I'd like to copy and paste them from the old server to the new one. However, I know that when I do that they will lose their rights to their home directory folder on the new server. Is there a way to do a cut and paste witho...

New Server for User Home
Currently, I have a NetWare 4.2/SP9 (traditional file system) server called UServ1 that is used for users Home directories only. The volume (200Gb) is 90% full.
