I'm interested in this too.  I searched through what I have for
archived mails on this mailing list, can couldn't find one detailing
the process, but I haven't been subscribed for that long.

This is what's I'm GUESSING the process might be.  For me anyway.

Currently I'm in the process of upgrading/moving from Kolab 2.1 Suse
native to 2.2.3 OpenPKG version on a Debian 5.0.1...

I'm kind of following a mix of backup/restore and 'upgrade'...

The new server will have a different hostname than the old server, and
I admit that I hadn't thought about that while trying to figure out
how to make this all work until I looked at the ldap export.

I'm hoping that in my situation, all I need to do is change all
references in the ldif from oldhost.domain.com to newhost.domain.com
before I import it into the newly installed server, and change my
kolab.conf to reference the new hostname...  Any ideas if I'm missing
something would be helpful...

Also, I'm new to mailing lists, I'm trying not to top-post, because I
think that's bad etiquette, but also, am I supposed to reply-all to
this or just reply to the mailing list address?

Thanks for any info/help...
