Edward, please don't take it personally but without knowing the original
poster's directory deployment you cannot assume only minor schema
changes. I've setup Netscape DS 4.x deployments myself with massive
schema changes.

Using ldapsearch/ldapmodify for migration has the disadvantage of
loosing the operational attributes. This might be ok for this migration
but has to be considered carefully.

I'd strongly recommend to export with db2ldif and sanitize the LDIF data
if needed before doing an import.

Without knowing further details detailed recommendations are hard to give.

Ciao, Michael.
