I should've mentioned a critical obstacle. I have no shell access
to the original machine anymore. Apparently they can't even get
into single-user mode to get in.<br>

Hello,<br>
<br>
I have a repository that I set up many years ago and maintenance
of which has passed away and back again. It's an eprints 2 repo
that is functioning fine but the administrators would like to
upgrade/migrate it to version 3. I believe it's about 7 years old
now. The machine has never been upgraded, not even the OS.<br>
<br>
I have the new hardware but I just can't figure out the best way
to achieve this. I've looked at the migration script written by
cjg but I'm worried to try code so old. <br>
<br>
Is there a way to just export everything in a format that can be
brought into the latest version? <br>
<br>
If not, then I do have the people available to input old the
eprints into the new version. The only issue with that is that
the URLs MUST match the original ones. This new machine will
eventually replace the original, once everything is migrated
over. Is there anyway to directly edit the eprint id of a
deposit?<br>
<br>
Any suggestions/help would be greatly appreciated.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
