Transfer accounts

[Snooby]

Hi,

This is my situation:

Server 1: CentOS with DirectAdmin
Server 2: CentOS with DirectAdmin

I'm not able to acces DirectAdmin on server 1 anymore. I have about 200 accounts on server 2 (where DirectAdmin does work) so I thought maybe I can transfer the accounts from server 1 to server 2 (server 2 contains about 150 accounts). Is it possible to transfer the 200 accounts (files and settings etc.) to server 2?

Without access to DirectAdmin on the first server it will be harder, but it can be done. You might be able to just transfer all of the users over one by one copying directadmin's data files, duplicating the system accounts and transfering other misc files such as email, website, mysql databases etc.

Yes it's possible, but it's a hassle. Why don't you have access to DirectAdmin anymore? If it's because the license expired it might be worth your while to buy a 1 month license (I think they have those) and then make backups from the reseller level and restore them on server 2.

jmstacey, thanks for your quick reply! I don't know why I can't acces DirectAdmin anymore, it's a lifetime license (http://194.126.173.12:2222). The strange thing is, http://194.126.173.12 shows the default Apache page, but I can't acces my server via SSH so I have no root acces.
