Slivko If the versions are the same and/or the config file syntax is the same between the version then there is no reason you cant use the same files on FreeBSD, so long as you copy them to the right places... Eg. for DNS, you can put your old zone files in /etc/namedb/ and they will still work the same... Your going to have to setup some things, like your /etc/rc.conf and other config files... It would be a lot easier to tell you if you specified EXACTLY what is was you wanted to migrate... Good Luck! Kal.
