I used the official migration tool 1.2.1 from the download section, is there another tool?  If not, then it didn't work for me.  My admin user was gone - it asked me to pick a new admin, and my old admin user was not on the list.  I checked the user table and the admin user, id 1 on phpBB, was not present.  I guess I can check the code (I've already written a patch for the phpBB converter to fix my international character support), but I'd like some input first so I'm not working in the dark (for example, I didn't know there was even an attempt to deal with this issue).

I almost have it.  I've successfully converted to phpBB2 (well, almost - didn't handle my international characters properly in posts).  The problem I am now running into is that the admin user is ID 1 in the phpBB db, and punBB uses this for guest, and when I migrate it drops this user therefore it loses all posts.  Any solutions?  I can't just change the UID in the phpBB users table because I would have to track the change across every table that references UIDs.

Thanks guys.  I'll first give their phpBB converter a try and see how it goes.
