We are running (not real familiar with UNIX)
SunOS 5.8 Generic_108528-15 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-4

Unfortunately they tell me I can not.  7.1.3 doesn't have a nsr.res 
nsrjb.res any more...it's in a db now!  I don't want the config - it's old 
and needs to be redone. I want the media db and indexes, that is what they 
say I definitely can not migrate!!!

Thanks!
