I think you are missing my point. When I installed FC3, I didn't do it as an upgrade, I built it on a brand new machine. But I have several scripts and configuration files from a development machine that I wanted to migrate to it. Files for my iptables, samba, http, ftp, mailserver, etc. etc. all could have easily been copied over from my dev machine to production. Long story short, just swapping the cables may not solve his problem, and perhaps he needs some help that is more constructive than facetious. -- David ----------------------------------------------------------------------- There are only 10 kinds of people in this world, those who understand binary, and those who don't.
