Hello,

I am in the process of getting a new IBM Netfinity file server (W2K server installed). Currently I have older NT4.0 netfinity server. If I backup all my data fron NT4.0 server, can I restore it to the new W2K server. Is there going to be any os compatebility issue? Let me know if there are ways around this.........Thank you!

1. install all software running on old server into new server with similar path and test functionality
2. if ok then simply shutdown all applications on old server and scopy all data files in same path in new server. Test
3. if incompatibility found there are work around depending on reason for incompatibility.
