I intend to migrate or rebuild my Netscape 3.5 proxy server to a MS NT 2.0 proxy server. I find no migration info out there on this issue, does anyone have some ideas or info where I could find some documentations to help make a smooth transition.
Thanks

Because MS Proxy is also a firewall (which some would argue against) MS proxy probably requires a fresh install. I have not run across in migration tools.

I'm not sure what you would need to migrate anyway, after you setup MS Proxy and install the clients software on each PC you should be up and running. Not sure with Netscape but MS proxy allows any software Internet access including Netscape browsers.

Don't forget to install IIS with latest service packs first.

Thanks for your info. I have been wondering if there was actually a migration tool but did not hurt to find out about what you don't know. I was trying to consider a migration if it was possible but I guess the options are limited to a fresh installof the MS proxy. I thank you however, for your input
