I think you will find the most trouble in o=NetscapeRoot. More than likely you will have to recreate
acls, roles, replication agreements, etc. by hand. I'm sure the data in o=UserRoot will not be a
big deal. You just have to keep in mind that schemas may have varied slightly.
Certificates and keys will have to be imported/exported to the new server also. In all, i think you
can go from Netscape 4.1 -> FDS 1.1.3 manually if you are well prepared.
You can always bring up a cloned instance of Netscape 4.1 and try the step upgrade.

Hi, I have an old Netscape Directory Server version 4.1 (circa
2001) that I need to migrate to Fedora Directory Server, but I am
confused as to the proper migration path.
I've been reading the Red Hat DS install guides at
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/dir-server/ (as there doesn't
appear to be as a comprehensive guide for Fedora DS.
The Redhat DS 8.0 guide says that migrating Netscape DS 4.x is not
supported (only version 6 and above), so I read the Red Hat DS 6.0
install guide and it says that Netscape DS 4.x is indeed supported.
So am I right to presume that a step-upgrade will be required, from
my current version 4.x to 6.x and then to the current version 8.0?
Also, what version of the Fedora-DS is equivalent to Red Hat DS 6.0?
Thanks -Dave
p.s. If somebody can tell me how to search this list's archives that
would be much appreciated!
