Hi all,
I did not get a response to this posting so I just went for it.
FYI: it worked fine. Copied the files I mentioned in the original post to
the new server and brought the original server down. The brought the new
server up and all worked great. Also I migrated to Centos 4.1 instead of
FC3.
All is working good.
Thanks!
Best regards,
