Hi Thanks for replying. I have been looking at this one, I have only 2 problems with it: 1. Generate Nis maps I believe that this should be the command nismap create -i 1 -g " " -y auto.master but i am unsure if this is correct for my exercise since I need to generate for multiple ou, could someone please give an example? 2. it says on the migration tool that I need to change the $NSHOME and $serverId to make it compatible to the Netscape but do I have been looking around I still can not find where these variabels are declared, does anyone have a clue or some experience with these script?
