You can start with 4.1 on the new server, then use the across-the-wire upgrade
method to migrate the files, users, and such to the 4.1 server. This is one of the
better methods, since you'll end up with your 3.12 server still intact in case you
have a problem.

Needless to say, you'll have to keep the 3.12 server fully assembled, and you'll
need to have both servers on the same network and using the same external net #.
