>www.bar.com"
>- FrontPage webmaster password is migrated.
>- File ownership is migrated, even if the user id (uid) is changed.
>- Import attempts to add virtual sites in order so that the site group
>(site1, site2, etc.) does not change, this is not always possible.
>- Supports RaQ XTR to RaQ 4 migration.
>- Fixed corruption of 5c characters on Japanese products.
>- Virtual site scheduled backups are exported and imported on RaQ XTR.
>- Option added: -a Exports and imports admin's files.
>- Option added: -S Skips conflict resolution and go directly to import,
>this should only be used by experienced administrators.
>- Option added: -C Runs conflict resolution only, no configuration or
>data will be imported.
>- Conflict resolution is improved.
> * New option: deactivate a service, such as ssl or anonymous ftp.
> * New option: discard a parameter, used to remove the conflicting
>entry.
> * New option: change a user name or virtual site fully qualified
>domain name. File ownership will also be changed.
> * New option: merge a virtual site with an existing site. This
>imports the users, mailing lists, and files of the site, but does not
>modify the existing site settings.
