Hello Les,
I think you are right about the fresh install. This
machine has been
upgraded numerous times and I have the opportunity to clean
things up.
My biggest concerns are the users, home directories and mysql dbs.
Thanks for the step by step!!!!

With Update 3 knocking on the door If I was you I'd :-
- burn fresh iso's of U3 (when they arrive) and partition the
new server afresh.
- Configure everything afresh bearing in mind that the old
configurations.
- Use the old as a backup while the new one gets on its feet.
Your present setup given the numerous upgrades and so on is not recommended for a production machine.
Didn't realize a new update was coming. It may be the end of next week before I get the new PC and probably the weekend before I have a chance to even set it up. Do you know how long before the update?
Thanks for letting me know this!!
