I have been migrating several thousand sites from raq3's to raq550's over the last six months. 90% of the sites implement FrontPage extensions. It is a pain in the a$$.
My work around for this problem is to export/import the site as usual. Delete all files from the web directory and then reinstall FrontPage extensions on the new server. Next, ftp all the web files from the old server to the new one excluding the FrontPage garbage (_vti* directories and postinfo.html). Then, just change all the file permissions back to nobody (chown -R nobody.site123 /home/sites/www.foo.com/web). I have been able to automate this process with a few bash and perl scripts. If anyone knows of a better way, please let me know.

Especially the navigation bar and the banner bars. Our solution so far is to create www2.site.com on the second RAQ server, open on www.site.com with frontpage, then publish www.site.com to www2.site.com. This works, but if we restore from the CMU in the case of an emergency, the navigation and banner bars are missing? Anyone got a solution for this?
