The easiest way to do this, (since the servers must be conserved) is an
in-place upgrade.  Before you do this, make sure that Service Pack 6 is
installed, along with the DS411P.EXE patch for NetWare 4.11 NDS found in the
Novell Minimum Patch List at http://support.novell.com/misc/patlst.htm.

I would make a couple of backups of the NDS data before and after these
upgrades, and make sure they work.  Once you know they do, proceed to
install NetWare 5 on top of NetWare 4.11 by using the in-place upgrade
option.

Hope it helps,
