Migrating filePro to Windows Server2003 ?

[Dan Snyder]

Hello everyone,
 
We have an SCO server v5.0.6 that is having serious hardware issues.  We
have about 35 users accessing filePro on this system.  We were hoping the
server would last until we migrated to a new ERP system but the server
doesn't look like it's going to make it.  Since we already have several
Windows servers and support resources are easier to come by, we are
considering migrating filePro to a Windows 2003 server.  I'd like to get
some feedback from anyone that has migrated from filePro on SCO to filePro
on Windows.
 
What kind of problems should we expect (our filePro applications are
extremely simple, no related/linked files/tables and no file system access)?
How do client workstations access the windows server?  Is it still telnet or
is it file sharing (we are using SCO termvision right now)?
How is printing configured? Any standard printer that the server has access
to (we have netcat and ICETCP now)?
Anything else we need to be worried about?
 
 
Thank you,
 
Dan Snyder
