Hey Dudes,

we had last day a crash on of our servers, raid controller going crazy.
We managed to take a backup of the user data and some other dirs :
/home
/etc
/var
/root

These accounts where on a CentOS system, and we have now a spare FreeBSD system to use to get our clients active again so we can repair the broken system.

Now, how can we do this?

Never had an issue like this so any help would be great.

What are our plans :
First move the MySQL files to the right dir
then move the /home dir's to /usr/home
import the users into the system (Linux FreeBSD compatibel?)
Then import the dns settings so the nameserver on the new system can start doing his job
and then adapt the httpd.con file ?
