Question Progress v6 to v9

I'd like to convert a v6 db to v9.

My environment:
v6 on SC0 Openserver 5. Old/slow Netfinity server.

New environment:
v9 on Red Hat. Blazing compaq server.

I know I can dump the data on the SCO server, tar it up and send it across to the RH server. However, I'd like to utilize the power of the RH server to dump the data.

Is there any way to do this or am I stuck doing the dump on the SCO box?

p.s. I've tried to use conv68 with -C but it's not found.
I get: Could not recognize: -C conv68. (348)

Thanks in advance!

The dump has to be done on the old machine, tared up, the reloaded in the new V9 database. But I guess you already figured that out.
