To move a DualShield server to a new machine that runs on a different OS from the old machine, you basically need to install a fresh new DualShield server on the new machine, then transfer the DualShield database and some other files from the old machine to the new machine. Below is the guide in steps.
On the old Windows machine:
1. Stop the DualShield service
2. If the DualShield uses a local MySQL database, then export the DaulShield database
