I have an existing netware 5 server that will be removed and reinstalled as a netware 6.5 server. I was wondering if there is a good way to backup the information on the data volume, specifically the trustees, and then restore them to the new server. My hope is to leave all of the users, groups, and trustee information intact in the tree, remove the old server, install the new 6.5 server, restore the data and then restore the trustee information. Thanks.
