Tools for migrating users from 4.5 to 5.0

[adconsulting]

Hi at all,
I found many problems to migrate my perfectly working installation under 4.5 release to a new server with the 5.0 release.
All shown ways to migrate users does not give the expected results. Why don't develop a simple ldap to ldap script to migrate
- Domains
- Users
- COS
from an ldap directory with 4.5 schema to a new ldap directory with 5.0 schema.
This tools will be much appreciated by the community!
Thanks
Antonio

If your “OS is same” on both servers and that “OS supports both 4.5 and 5.0”
Then you should do the following
1) Install 4.5 on NEW Server
2) Copy everything from OLD 4.5 to NEW
3) Make sure everything works..
5) Upgrade from 4.5 to 5.0 using new installer.. on NEW Server.

If you are migrating from Different OS or the one which don’t have 5.0 support then there are lots of forum and WIKI info on it.
