Will have a look at the script. We have approx 180 domains and a couple of thousand mail boxes. The mail boxes are accessed on another server via nfs share. We were hoping to only have to backup and restore the mysql database and point the new server to the mailboxes via nfs as well. We are reluctant to attempt modifications to the old mail server as the previous admin is no longer with us and he did not document the changes he made to the server.

It appears the installation was done from source code. We are wanting to move the server to a new installation using the qmail toaster. I have new installation version 5.0 from the iso. I have tested it with a test domain and works well. I have reviewed the replication videos to get a handle on exporting the vpopmail database and importing it. One of the other administrators did a mysqldump and I have a vpopmail.sql file approx 620kb in size. I logged into the mail server and these are the commands I used: root#mysqladmin drop vpopmail -u root -p worked ok root#mysqladmin create vpopmail -u root -p worked ok root#mysql -u root -p mysql>use vpopmail; mysql>show master status; Empty set (0.00) mysql> quit; root#mysql -u root -p vpopmail < vpopmail.sql ran ok no errors but when I checked database still empty.
