If this occurs, make sure that the latest Support Pack is installed on the NetWare 5.0 server and then
do the following:
1 At the NetWare 5.0 source server console, enter
down
2 At the DOS prompt, enter.
copy c:\nwserver\expxeng.xlm c:\nwserver\novxeng.xlm
3 Enter.
copy c:\nwserver\domxeng.xlm c:\nwserver\novxeng.xlm
NOTE: This might fail because domxeng.xlm is not present. This is not a problem.
If you used a directory other than \nwserver to store the server files, substitute that directory
for \nwserver in steps 2 and 3.
4 Restart the NetWare 5.0 server.

Failures
If the migration fails during the NDS/eDirectory Migration step, you need to restore the source and

rebooted and taken on the name and identity of the source server, complete the steps in the following

2. "Remove NDS/eDirectory from the Source Server" on page
3. "Restore NDS/eDirectory to the Source Server" on page
4. "Reinstall the Destination Server" on page

the name and identity of the source server, you need only restore NDS/eDirectory to the source
server. When NDS/eDirectory has been restored, you have restored the source server to its original
configuration and you are ready to try the NDS/eDirectory migration again.
