Chapter 5 Migrating From AppleShare IP 101
You can also use the dsimport tool to import users and groups. See the command-line
administration guide for dsimport instructions.
To create home directories for imported users:
You have several options:
• Create home directories one at a time by selecting a user account in Workgroup
Manager, clicking Advanced, then clicking Create Home Now.
• Create all the home directories by using the -a argument of the createhomedir
command. For details, see the command-line administration guide or the man page
for createhomedir.
• A home directory associated with an AFP share point is automatically created the
first time a user logs in if it doesn’t exist already.
Step 8: Copy data to the new server
Copy data you want to reuse from the remote ASIP server to Mac OS X Server.
Web Content
Copy static webpages to /Library/Webserver/Documents/.
For dynamic content, consider recoding your existing CGIs using the native Mac OS X
Server web server capabilities. You can also run AFIP CGIs based on AppleScript, and it
is no longer necessary to have the Classic environment available to run them; run the
ACGI Enabler (in /Applications/Utilities/) to set up Apache support for these legacy
CGIs.
FTP Configuration Files
To migrate your FTP settings, copy configuration files to the Mac OS X Server
directory indicated:
User Data
Place home directories in locations that match the locations in the imported user
records. If necessary, you can use Workgroup Manager to edit user accounts so the
locations in the account and on disk are the same.
Instructions for restoring Macintosh Manager data are in step 10.
