I have a client who wants to switch to hosting with us however they run ASPPlayground and I only use Linux servers. Is anyone looking at doing this? How difficult would it be. Etc.

thanks

Do you have access to the MS-SQL database that its running on ?

If so, I'll be able to tell you after having a look at the schema.

Thanks for replying Jerry,

I am not sure yet, I will know soon enough if they are interested in switching products then I should be able to gain access to the ms sql database and map out the schema for you.

For MS-SQL importers the usual method is to make a copy of the database via detaching it and copying the source files, then I can write and importer from there.

Hi Jerry,

I have the database now. I can copy and remove sensitive data if there is any such as email addresses/passwords and leave post data to play with.

Shall I email it?

Let me know.

Thanks again.

The passwords will be important, I would guess that they are stored in either an md5 or sha type formatting

Actually the passwords from the userpass column are AlphaNumeric i.e. a mix of

mom1
test
user@user.com
test*
un!t


There is a temppass column that has a cap 5 digit ALPHA sequence.

XHPGG
YOIUJ
ETCET

etc

Well PM me about that, though if you remove data I won't be able to test it on import and password and email address would mean i can't test the user import, which would make the whole importer redundant.
