Migration Novell& Groupwise to Microsoft

microsoft has a migration utility to migrate the
users to active directory.
as for file the file system, most of that you'll
probably have to recreate the rights for
users/groups.
login scrips will need to be redone also.
and migration of email:
you'll probably need to load outlook with the
groupwise plugins, export all the mail, then
from there import the pst's into exchange

Not an answer, but a question. Why in the world would you open up yourself to this much work and insecurity??
You have it good now. Wait until you get into patch city!

Been there just did it last month. How many users, how many servers, how many workstations including OS types, how much data? Any existing NT or Win2K servers in NDS now or in a separate Domain? LAN/WAN Topology? Network Printing Environemnt now example HP JET DIRECT, we hope? Are you contracting this out or performing in house? Depending on the answers above will depend on if any utilites or extra help is needed as well as the overall scope of the Project. In my scenario I migrated from 3Netware 5.0 servers, 250 workstations NT and WIN2K, spanning several different locations and different subnets. Now have 9 WIN2K servers running Citrix, Exchange 2000 and SQL 2000. The only difference was that I was running NIMS instead of Groupwise. I can give you an outline to follow but I need more info

I am currently in the process of doing this. Groupwise migration has already been done, with the move to win2k in the next half year. There are migration wizards / tools around for transfering the mail to Exchange and users into AD but care needs to be taken as it is not as straight forward as they imply. Alot depends on the version of Netware & Groupwise you are moving from. One thing I would say is don't do it the way I am having to - its what the client needed!!
To give a more detailled answer would need more info. - NO. of servers, users, size of file system, size & number of post office, number of sites etc. With that info can help more.
