I am about to migrate from a 25 user 3.12 server to a new 100 user 3.12
machine.  I plan to use the Migrate utility in an accross the wire upgrade,
and have a few questions:

1 - are there any issues in performing the upgrade?  The 100 user is a
later patch rev, and I worry about overwriting newer files in System and
Public with the older files from the source server.

2 - When performing the migration, I have a choice to set passwords to
blanks or random passwords, but I wondered if I did a bindfix on the old
server, performed the migrate, then did a bindrest on the new server ( with
the .old files from the 25 user server ), would that restore the passwords,
or just screw things up?

Thanks
