I have a Raq4r I want to migrate to a BlueQuartz MSI server. I thought I 
would attempt using CMU. I'm hoping someone can point me in the right 
direction and possibly answer a few questions?

(I'm not really a sysadmin. Only know enough to be dangerous. I would be 
happy to pay someone but I'm in very rural Alaska so that ain't gonna 
happen).

I've thought of doing it by hand as the Raq only has one or two (one not 
used much) virtual websites for our city (pretty heavy use of pdf files) 
and about 24 email users. I'm the only admin for it. But since it has 
been awhile since setting up a httpd.conf file I don't remember much 
about it and thought it might be easier using the tool made for it.

I'm using raqbackup.sh to backup to a backup server. There is no mysql 
database currently.

The setup right now is our old Raq is on a DMZ interface of a firewall. 
I have the MSI server on our network so I can update it and set it up, 
but I figure I'll take it off the network when the cmuExport is copied 
over and redo the ip address to match the Raq's. I can test it with a 
laptop to see how things may be broken before taking the Raq offline and 
putting the MSI in service.

I made the mistake first of setting up the host name as nomecity.org 
(the main virtual site is nomealaska.org) when first turning on the 
server. I believe it will be easy to delete the virtual site. Should I 
rename the host name something different than www.nomecity.org or leave 
it be?

Contents of the backup file:
groups-www.cityofnome.org-public.tar.gz and private.tar.gz
groups-www.nomealaska.org-public.tar.gz and private.tar.gz
groups-www.nomecity.org-private (and public) .tar.gz
groups-www.webmail.nomealaska.org-(etc.)
users-**-private and public.tar.gz
www.nomecity.org.dirs.tar.gz

Copy these files to /home/cmu on the destination server and issue the 
cmuImport command - I downloaded someone's (Gerald?) migration-guide.pdf 
for TLA servers for actual commands maybe.



Clarifications, advice, and workarounds greatly appreciated.
