migrating unix mp-ras 32 bit to linux suse 64 bit
Hi.
I need to migrate the whole unix environment from a Unix mp-ras 32 bit to a Linux Suse 64 bit.
1) can i use cpio to copy the data?
2) can i just copy the users from unix to linux or do i have to create them by hand
3) are there any other concerns i should worry about?
thanx
