Are you going to be running the same operating system on the new machine? If yes then you can export the registry file and import it into the new installation which would allow you to keep all of your settings. If you're going from 2k to XP pro then it should still work.

Your valid version 4.x license will allow you to upgrade to the latest version although if you want access to our built-in email server you'll need to purchase an upgrade license.

I hope this helps.

Thanks Matt, it will be the same os, just a machine with a bit more grunt, dont need the mail server, currently use FTGate Office.

Thanks again
