I have just installed centos 4 on a spare box - working great. Until now, I have been using Fedora Core3. I wish to move all of my mail, address book and bookmarks created in Thunderbird and Firefox from the Fedora system to the new Centos system. Would someone kindly point me in the right direction, I am relatively new at linux. Many thanks for any assistance. christian
copy ~/.thunderbird and ~/.firefox over to home directory of centOS box.

I now have fedora and centos side by side, and I think Centos is going to be here to stay - great! All the best, regards, chris burnat. Sydney.
