Thanks Rick,

You are saying, I have to export it at first.

Initially, I just built 1.1 in 32bit mode (with the identical db
library). With that, I even was just using the same directory and it
worked fine. So, I guess I have to go the export/import way.
I'm just really not sure. I don't think we write any longs or other 64-bit values to the database with 1.1. So it may just work and be fine.
Cheers,

Hi,

Does anyone know, if that works?

Are you talking about the migration script migrate-ds-admin.pl?  If so,
then yes.  You will first have to export your databases to ldif e.g. for
a Fedora DS 1.0.4 installation:
cd /opt/fedora-ds/slapd-instance/db
../db2ldif -n userRoot -a `pwd`/userRoot.ldif ../db2ldif -n NetscapeRoot
-a `pwd`/NetscapeRoot.ldif ... repeat for each database instance

The migration script will look for a file called
/opt/fedora-ds/slapd-instance/db/<db instance name>.ldif and use that
rather than the binary files.

You should also run the migration script with the -x option to force it
to use cross platform mode.
Thanks,
-Reinhard
