What I have done in the past is load the client on the new PC, copy the ID
file and connect the new PC to the server as a fresh install.  Once that is
done and the client can talk to the server OK, I copy the following files
to the new PC:  names.nsf, headline.nsf, bookmark.nsf, perweb.nsf,
desktop6.ndk.  Also any local replicas the user may have on their old PC.

I have a notes 6.5.1 user who just got a new pc running XP pro. We
installed notes and using his id file from the old pc attempted to start
notes. Since a location document didn't exist all that info had to be
re-entered. Is there an easier way to migrate an existing user to a new
pc? One suggestion (from the domino 6 forum) was to copy the
lotus\notes\data directory and all it's contents to the new pc BEFORE
installing notes. We tried that and it didn't work. My thought is to
uninstall notes from the new pc, re-do the install and then copy the id
file, names.nsf and maybe notes.ini from the old pc to the new one before
starting notes.

Comments anyone?

Regards, Jerry
