Hello All, First I'd like to thank: "Lumpkin, Buddy" for mentionning that the proposed procedure works but that you must have a backup handy in case something happens to the files under $SSPVAR/.ssp_private after the domain_remove. "Justin Stringfellow" for also confirming that the procedure works. However, I figured out from the ssp 3.4 answerbook that the supported procedure is much more straightforward since you can simpy do a: domain_rename -d <domain> -o 5.8 ..to upgrade a domain to 5.8. I'll be using that solution. Many thanks to all who responded; the domain_remove/domain_create procedure provides an alternative if you have SSP 3.2 or below since the existing domain_rename cmd cannot be used to change the OS level with these older software packages.. ,-*~'`^`'~*-,._.,-*~'`^`'~*-,._.,-*~'`^`'~*-,._.,-*~'`^`'~*-,._.,-*~'`^`'~*-, Vincent S.
