The 6.3 to 8.6 or 9.x version jump is large enough that you are probably better off writing a new configuration from scratch, than trying to find a migration path.  Two of the big things to watch out for are:

  * at 8.3, the NAT subsystem was completely rewritten.  ACL's now use real addresses, not mapped.  NAT rules use network objects, not ACL's.

  * at 9.0, the v6 support was merged into the v4 access lists.  "any" is dual-stack.
