Very Computer

have just installed Open server 5 ver 5.0.5 on a new server and I am
trying to some how copy the files from the old server. uucp and uuto seem to
be very cryptic and hard to use. So I thought mounting the old server over
the network might be better but when I enter the following I get an error

I entered this on the new server

mount -f  NFS old_system_name:directory_on_old_system_where_the_files_are
/mnt

and received this error

mount: oldserver:/usr/dan server not responding (1)
: RPC: Program not registered

Thanks for you help

The old server apparently isn't running mountd.
