Novell FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is integrated with Novell eDirectory so that users can securely transfer files to and from OES 2 or OES NetWare volumes.
There are no significant differences.
Table 5-5 FTP Source and Target Server Requirements
|
Source Server |
Target Server |
|---|---|
|
NetWare 5.1 or later |
OES 2 SP3 with the Novell FTP service pattern installed but not configured. |
If a configuration exists on the target server, it is overwritten regardless of the migration type.
You can use either of the two migration types offered by the Migration Tool to transfer FTP file services from NetWare to OES 2:
Consolidate: Both consolidation on the same tree and consolidation to a different tree are supported. For more information, see Section A.1.1, Consolidating Selected Data or Services.
Transfer ID: If you are transferring an entire NetWare server, including the FTP service and associated data, to an OES 2 SP3 server, then you should transfer the entire server configuration. Transfer ID migrations must occur within in the same tree. For more information, see Section A.1.2, Transferring an Entire NetWare Server.
To transfer Novell FTP from NetWare to OES 2, follow the instructions in Migrating FTP from NetWare to OES 2 Linux
in the OES 2 SP3: Migration Tool Administration Guide.
Verify a successful upgrade by making sure that the FTP service works as expected. For more information, see Post-Migration Procedure
in the OES 2 SP3: Migration Tool Administration Guide. For help with LUM-enabling FTP users, see TID 3503915.
